Navigate to Settings app > Apps > Apps & features and see if the Microsoft Store install on your Windows 10.

In the PowerShell prompt, type the following command and press the Enter key.

Code: 
Get-Appxpackage –Allusers  -name Microsoft.WindowsStore


Scroll down and locate the PackageFullName entry of the Store app and copy the package name.

After selecting the PackageFullName, use Ctrl + C to copy. You won’t be able to right-click and copy.

Code: 
Add-AppxPackage -register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\<PackageFullName>" –DisableDevelopmentMode


In the above command, replace PackageFullName with the package name of the Windows Store and replace “C” with the drive letter of the drive where Windows 10 is installed.

I tried to find the one that have the name "Microsoft.WindowsStore" but it's not there too

It's not there because Microsoft Store completely uninstalled, what i mean is that the Windows Store installation folder also deleted. No PowerShell command going to reinstall Windows Store, you need to perform repair install.

You can't repair install Microsoft Store, you can repair install Windows 10 which will also install all default installed apps.

You can also perform in-place upgrade of Windows 10. In-place upgrade is to use to replace the current operating system files on your computer. Unlike a clean installation of Windows, you can start a Windows in-place upgrade when your OS is still running. And an in-place upgrade can keep your files, settings, & apps during the upgrade process. You can perform a Windows 10 in-place upgrade is to use the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool. Make sure to select Upgrade this PC now and click Next. Follow the on-screen guide to perform a Windows 10 in-place upgrade.

Hi, wvl.

You said in your first post that you installed Windows 10, when you changed the disk. Since you said that Microsoft Store disappeared, that means you had a different edition of Windows before you changed the disk. Why didn't you install the same edition as before? Why Enterprise? Enterprise edition is usually used by organizations, with the use of Volume licences for activation. Is your license a Volume one?

At that moment i didn't know anything about the "Windows Version", my brother gave me a USB with Windows 10 installer inside it, i installed and it doesn't have Microsoft Store because it's the Enterprise verson.

Now I installed the Windows 10 Pro edition and it works, i can finally get the Store now. Thanks for your helps!1642641413751.png
 
Hi, wvl.

I made to you those questions because it seemed to me that you had no genuine licence for your Windows operating system and I hope that the Pro edition you installed now is activated with a genuine licence (although that black color makes me think that Windows is not activated). Having Windows not activated or using a Volume or a pirated licence may cause you many issues soon or later. Have this in mind.
