"Unsupported manifest format" error, likely corrupt store

Subject: "Unsupported manifest format" error, likely corrupt store

Hello,

Yesterday my PC lost power and when I turned it back on I started getting the 
error "guix package: unsupported manifest format".

I have tried using "guix time-machine" to revert to a working commit and try 
again but this does not work. I have also tried a roll-back.

I then can see that my ~/.guix-profile/manifest is empty, thus I think it is 
safe to say that this is where the issue is originating, however I am unable to 
rewrite this file, so I was wondering if there was any fix to this?

I have tried everything that I can think of to repopulate this file, running 
guix pull as well as pulling certain past commits that worked, however nothing 
is fixing this error. Running pull works without errors, but the problem 
persists.

I think that my store must be corrupt, as if I run guix gc --verify=contents I 
get a lot of path was modified, expected hash x, got y errors. I have tried 
fixing this using repair flag for gc but it is unable to repair these.

I also used the command "guix refresh" and saw that many packages needed to be 
refreshed, however I cannot finish this command as I get the following error:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
