Issues

When you ran sfc and chkdsk, did you find any issues? inetc.dll is the component that allows the Updater/App Store to communicate with the Windows internet components to be able to download the app database and apps. Something happened on your PC that likely corrupted the install or broke some of those Windows internet components.

inetc.dll

Yes, chkdsk found and made corrections. After this, I have searched from inetc.dll and found it only in the c:\TMP folder with the strange suffix _uninstalled (_unavaiable? or something like this) with 25KB. Besides that location, there was no other location with that DLL. I renamed the 25KB Dll and copied that into the PortableApps folder, but this didn't solve the issue.

Remove It, Clear TEMP, Manually Update Platform

Remove it from the PortableApps folder. Clear out the files in the %TEMP% directory. Then reinstall the platform over itself to ensure no files are corrupted after CHKDSK fixed the disk corruption. See here for instructions: https://portableapps.com/support/platform#manualupdate

Temporary

The inetc.dll file is extracted to TEMP and used during runtime. It's deleted when done. Something on your PC is now preventing it from working correctly.

I do this once a day (shut off and turn on). But it never changed the issue status. Suddenly, after a few restarts, the program started working again.
