AppX Deployment Service (AppXSVC) AppXSVC Is the service that uses most Hard disk resources after upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 10. This service is responsible for the Microsoft Store Application Checks. Although it is set to start only on demand, for a good period of time, it will run and will stress us a lot.

My windows start button and Cortana aren't working on Windows 10 and I have looked into how to fix this. Most common fix i have found is using this line in powershell:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register '$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml'}

When I try to run this command it always comes up with:

Appxsvc Appx Deployment Service (appxsvc) 7

Get-AppXPackage : The dependency service or group failed to start.

Appxsvc

I discovered that AppXPackage was apart of the AppX Deployment Service and tried to start the service and came up with the same error:

The dependency service or group failed to start

Im unsure how to fix this problem as I have tried booting the system in safe mode to see if it would change and have tried restarting in normal start up and its still the same. Restoring is the same.

Any advice would be helpful.

Okay please help. I've had success asking this community before when I was desperate, so I'll try again. I Just bought an ASUS gaming laptop that had Windows 8.1. I had high disk usage with windows 8 so without really trying to dig into the problem I thought upgrading to Windows 10 would fix it. Well, I was wrong. So I started digging and looking online then listened to other threads telling me to look on my resource monitor which helped me see it's svchost(wsappx) constantly using the disk up to 100%. Trying pretty much everything, I've found it it's virtually impossible to disable or delete wsappx and it's components. finding out it has to do with the Windows store, I really want it gone because I have no care for the store and it's making this laptop close to useless. I have two screenshots. But I don't know how to attach them.
UPDATE
trying out a lot of fixes over the internet like disabling superfetch, BITS, antivirus and more seem to somewhat reduce it, but any program I open causes it to rocket up to 100% disk usage. Like file explorer, chrome, skype, or steam. After trying out a fix that used regedit to create a run command for the store to not open, that seemed to fix wsappx opening for while before it randomly opened right back up. I was wondering if it was just this drive going bad even though I just got the computer about a week ago. I can change the hard drive myself but I didn't know if I'd lose my three year protection warranty from best buy if I opened the laptop up.
