Live webcam Tiles inexplicably stopped working

The live tiles update as usual, but when you click on/tap on them, they do not open upward, outside of IE, which begins to open, hangs on the icon for a while, then stops and returns to the start screen.  I tried some of the solutions on these pages:

  • Uninstalled my avast antivirus, tried things without him and reinstalled - no difference
  • Restarted the PC of countless times
  • Messed around with the boot options (turning on and off startup programs non-windows of a particularly laborious mission which did not work)
  • Many solutions require the commissioning of the windows store.  This does not work because the Windows store does not start
  • Tried to use a local account not connected to my account windows live

That sounds as if it was a very common problem.  I not made any changes to my pc other allowing windows, windows store apps and avast updated normally.  I did take a snapshot of my PC I can restore.  I don't want to reinstall windows because I already did this time to solve another problem and then reinstall Office again (really annoying because I keep having to download).

Please, please help.

Hi Adrien,.

Thanks for the reply.

I suggest you to check if the problem occurs in an another Microsoft Account or not.

Step 1:
I suggest you to refer to the procedure described in the article.

Create a user account
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-user-account

Step 2: Copy old files to the new profile:

a. go to C:\Users\Corrupted_Profile_Name\. The name of the profile will be the corrupted ProfileName.

b. copy all files.

c. Open Panel and the display of folder options uncheck Hide protected operating system files.

d. navigate to C:\Users\Corrupted_Profile_Name and copy the Appdata folder.

Note: Do not copy these three files. NtUser.dat, NtUser.ini, NtUser.log.

e. navigate to C:\Users\New_Profile_Name\.

f. Paste all files here.

Hope this information helps. Answer the post with an up-to-date issue report to help you further.

  • Windows Live Mail has suddenly stopped working

    My Windows Live Mail has suddenly stopped working.  I get the error message below.  I contacted Time Warner - talked to 3 different technicians, each gave different instructions, of which none has solved the problem.  I contacted Microsoft and they said that they do not support Windows Live Mail.   I am able to access my e-mail through Time Warner Webmail, but I want to get Live Mail works again.  Can anyone help?

    Can't send or receive messages on behalf of Wi.rr (jxxxxx). Windows Live Mail could not open a session secure e-mail server using password authentication. Contact your e-mail provider and verify that it supports secure password authentication. To change the connection setting, in the folder list, right-click on the account name, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.

    Maybe the exclusive database is corrupted.

    Read the following article.

    Stops Windows Live Photo Gallery (944221)
    answer or does not start
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/944221/en-us
    (according to version, database can be
    Pictures.PD4, Pictures.pd5 or Pictures.pd6)

    When you rename the file will force Live Photo Gallery to create
    a new database on the next launch file.

    Know that the gallery will be as it was the first time that you
    open and some metadata and labels may be lost.
