Windows 8 tiles not opening

I tried everything above except for run "CMD" because when I right click I don't have the ability to run as an administrator. Still can not solve the problem.

The problem with their directions is that it takes you to the Office window for running the CMD prompt which does not give you the "Run as Administrator" option.  You must go through the side of the metro.  Click on Windows + C to open the charms on the right panel and select "search".  In research applications, type "cmd" and then when you see "Command Prompt" in the list box on the left, right-click on it and select 'Run as administrator' at the bottom of the screen.  You then use the sfc/scannow.

This is the second time I went through not having this problem... and I got this machine Win 8 only about 1.5 years.  The first tiles stopped working and I couldn't go to the store to update the applications or to update to 8.1... nothing else in Windows has been updated either.  After trying all the tips that I could find that I had to just erase it and restored to the original and start again at ground zero... she sucked!  I didn't go far to 8,1 because I was worried about restore points would not work... now, it seems that I have to go through the process of finding a solution again.  I had hoped they would have solved this problem now.

Hello

Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that you have a problem with the opening of the Metro applications. I appreciate your efforts to solve this problem. I've surely you will help solve this problem.

To better understand the issue, let me know if you receive any error messages?

This problem might have occurred because of these reasons:

  1. Corrupt the App Store.
  2. Incorrect settings App.

I suggest to try the procedure described in the article to reregister the App Store and check if that helps.

  • After installing the Windows SP3 does not open.

    I have a laptop Sony Vio running Windows XP Home Edition. Last week I tried to update from SP2 to SP3. After about 2 hours, it was at the point of file cleanup. After a time to shout a message came uo 'Please Wait'. I waited all night, and the message was always there in the morning. I restarted the computer and now Windows wilol is not open. He turns the splash screen and then the screen turns blank ever opening in the icon screen. When I try to start safe mode it runs a number of lines if information and where he had reached the end of one line info nothing happens. I tried to boot in a security 3 with the same resunts mode. Tried running in the final Condition to work with the same results - Windows startup screen runs then screen turns white and screen icon never opens. I have makes the system, Application and Driver Recovery CD. That SP3 could have done to create this condition? No idea how to fix ths situation without losing me any files - images Woed docs etc.? Any help would be greatly appreicated.

    At this point, your main goal should be to backup all your files from user data that you can from your [no bootable] machine.  I find that a good way to do it is to this is to use another machine to create free Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu (if you use Ubuntu, do not install but use instead "Try Me").  You do this by downloading an .iso file and then use the "burn image" of your program of CD burning to create the bootable CD/DVD.  You can now start your laptop from this CD and Linux will allow that access you your hard disk without disturbing anything on this subject.  You can then copy off and back up your data on a USB stick or a network drive files.

    Once your files are safely backed up, you can then reinstall Windows using the recovery disks you have.

    Knoppix: http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html>
    Ubuntu: <> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download >

    Recovery CD Windows are also a possibility but more effort involved to create the CD.  Such a disc is "BartPE".

  • Windows 7 does not open the windows in the taskbar. The content seems to be displayed off the screen

    Windows 7 does not open the windows in the taskbar. The content seems to be displayed off the screen. It started after the uninstall of Registry Mechanic and PC Tools, but this cannot be bound. IE 9 seems to be particularly affected. So do not display all of the windows that show on the taskbar.

    Use the Windows logo key & left arrow several times for each windows application through their positions until they appear on the screen.

    This problem is normally reported after someone used an external monitor as the applications try to open in the same position they had when they were last open - so if there was an external monitor last time now disconnected, they will try to open it in the middle of nowhere.

    I know not, or the other tools that you mention, but if they are registry cleaners then they could also affect other parts of your system.

  • Windows store does not open (windows 8)

    I tried various fixes, nothing worked! Help, please! My main concern is to upgrade to windows 10!  Right now I'm stuck with windows 8

    IM using the HP envy m6 laptop.

    Hi Alain,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    When you do a Refresh: Applications that you have installed Web sites and DVD is deleted. The applications provided with your PC and applications that you have installed in the Windows store will be resettled. Windows puts a list of apps removed on your desktop after you refresh your PC.

    Because you want to upgrade to Windows 10, first, you need to update to Windows 8.1 of Windows 8 and then you can switch to Windows 10 Windows 8.1.

    Please refer to: Update Windows 8.1 of Windows 8

    Once you have updated Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows, please see the following article in order to upgrade to Windows 10 Windows 8.1.

    Upgrade to Windows 10 for free

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • I uninstalled and reinstalled and Firefox for windows 7 does not open. There is no error message - it just does not, even in safe mode. What should I do?

    My computer is set to the automatic update in Windows 7 Home Premium and Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010. I am also running Norton 360. There was a major update for the office on 10-12-14, which seems to be at the start of my problems. This month, whenever my updates caused a restart, Mozilla has failed to open. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times, and it lasted only a day or two before it crashes again. This last time it is still not open. All instructions to solve problems appear to be based on the idea that the program is open and just questions. I can't even open it in Mode without failure.

    I tried to reinstall, and it says it will launch automatically when the installation is complete, but it does not work. As Norton scan every download before it works, I am not sure if this is the problem since I never get the window that indicates the setup step by step for Firefox.

    What should I do?

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. A clean reinstall is not the same as a regular resettlement performed using built-in installer. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from mozilla.org office (or choose the download for your operating system and language on this page) and save the file to install it on your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (or open the Firefox menu

      Click the close button

      ).

    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    More information on the resettlement of Firefox can be found here.

    WARNING: Do not use an uninstaller to third parties as part of this process. This could permanently delete your Firefox profile data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and passwords saved. They can be retrieved easily unless they have been backed up on an external device! See back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox.

    Please report to say if this helped you!

    Thank you.

  • in 1/4 top of the window, mouse will not open items

    In firefox mouse window does not open the items at the top of page 1/3 of the window. Normally arrow turns into a hand pointer. This barely 1/3 top of the open window. In the above lines items page open.

    This problem can be caused by that extended the Yahoo! toolbar or extension of Babylon also well down and covers the top of the browser window and therefore links and buttons in this part of the screen not clickable.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

    If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

    There is nothing to worry.

    Using both programs at the same time can cause system conflicts, etc.
