Thanks for your answer. I've tried the script in some other systems and it indeed works for almost all universal apps, even some usually irremovable ones, however, on the problematic system, the problem unfortunately persists and the script does not work. It shows the exactly same error messages in the powershell with all apps I try to remove.

If this still happens when PowerShell is invoked with "Run as administrator", then something is very wrong on that computer. If this is as problem with the Store, try these 5 Tips to Fix Windows Store and App Issues in Windows 10.
