Essential UWP apps

Photos, Groove Music, Movies & TV and other apps are not included with this Windows 10.
You can get them here: AppInstaller2.7z
You can download using Microsoft Edge or copy from your PC with Mass Storage Mode. Read the manual before using.

Installing manually

If AppInstaller don't work well for you, you can do this to install them:
Open Windows PowerShell as Administrator. Then type this:

Add-AppxPackage -Path "<PathToFolder>\App.appx"

For example:

Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\Lumia\Downloads\AppInstaller2\Apps\Microsoft.NET.Native.Runtime.1.7.appx"

You will need to install .NET Native & Framework, VCLibs and Microsoft.Advertising.Xaml before installing other apps. Overwise, it may errors.
