I'm trying to help someone who couldn't get PSO2 working so he tried a bunch of random powershell commands he googled and deleted Windows Store.

And yeah, it isn't directly PSO2/MS's fault that a user started running PS commands without knowing what they do, but I'm learning just how awful the store/apps ecosystem is on Windows and I'm gonna insist they take some of the blame here.

@trysdyn i have seen people with fresh windows 10 installs have the store repeatedly delete the game or fuck up the file ACLs on its own without any powershell intervention :\

@shaderphantom I had it download all 80gb of shite then immediately taint itself and refuse to even try to launch. It replaced the Play button with a Reinstall button and launching it by executable just popped up a thing saying "This app needs to be reinstalled".

So far I think that one's a unique one. But yeah it's major bug No10 or so that I've seen.

This is a pretty big mess; the whole app ecosystem is.
