$bundlefamilies = (get-appxpackage -packagetype bundle).packagefamilyname

get-appxpackage -packagetype main |? {-not ($bundlefamilies -contains $_.packagefamilyname)} |% {add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode ($_.installlocation + "\appxmanifest.xml")}

if none of above help:

i'm not surprised having trouble windows 10 fall creators update.

there seems adopter issues @ time windows 10 1709, if can, recommend downgrade previous version until fall creators update matures future cumulative updates.

open start > settings > update & security > recovery > under go previous version of windows 10, click started.
