Windows store does not open (windows 8)

So I've recently refreshed my laptop running Windows 8.1 and after refresh, he returned to windows 8. But now all gone metro apps and windows store does not open. When I click it, nothing happens.

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.

    Hello

    Since the App Store does not open, check if the startup disk need to repair and restore OS X using OS X Recovery.

    Start your Mac while pressing the command + R keys.

    From there, you should be able to access the built in utilities in OS X recovery to repair the boot and OS X restore disc.

  • Windows store does not open in Windows 8

    This may sound silly, but the original user that I had for my laptop has been removed. It was an accident, fortunately the other was an administrator. Anyway, everything was basically as except the apps are not installed, I tried the video application from the store back, so I clicked on the store and it crashed. I went on other questions about this problem and did the wsreset thing, and he said: ms-windows-store: PurgeCaches

    Is there any way to solve this problem? I don't think I can reset it because I didn't drive come with the laptop, unless I can use a USB key to do so.

    I found this on a thread for 8.1 - same problem - I'm not on 8.1 as I STORE THE COULD NOT OPEN (DUH), but I tried and IT WORKED.

  • App Store does not open, ball keeps spinning.

    My App Store won't open on my MacBook pro. Ball guard spinning.

    Howdy Dennis,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple.

    If the App Store will not be open on your Mac, then I suggest to try to see if the same thing happens in a new user.  This will help us determine the next step in troubleshooting.

    How to test with another user account

    You can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    Create a test user account

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click the users and groups in the System Preferences window.
    3. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    4. Click on the button Add (+) below the list of users.
    5. Choose a type of user in the new pop-up menu.
    6. Give the user a name and first name, account name, and password.
    7. Click OK.
    8. Close the System Preferences window.

    If there are documents from your user account that you want to test with original, place a copy of these items in the shared folder in the users folder. Press the Option key while dragging a file in this folder to create a copy.

    Connect to the test user account

    Log out of your current user account by choosing logout in the Apple menu, and then open a session the new account that you created. If you are prompted to login with your iCloud or Apple ID account when you log in, skip this step.

    Try to reproduce the problem

    Try the same steps that caused the unexpected behavior to appear. For example, if you are unable to print, try printing from this user account. If you were unable to connect to the Internet, try to navigate on a website of this user account.

    If you use specific test settings depends on (for example using a specific e-mail account or an account iCloud) implemented the same test user account. For email and other parameters, you can use the Internet accounts pane in system preferences to set up these types of accounts. If your home folder files are necessary for tests, copy them into the shared folder in the users folder (/ Users/Shared). After you connect as a user test, copy these items to the same location in the test user home folder to test with.

    If a problem occurs in account only one user

    Is using the same steps in a user account test does not cause the same unexpected behavior, most likely you don't need to reinstall applications or OS X.

    • If a problem occurs only in a single application, check the documentation or Web site for instructions on troubleshooting specific preferences or the definition of the application files.
    • If you need help with a problem or a specific alert message, search the Apple support Web site for the text of the alert message you see.

    If a problem occurs in more than one user account

    If the same unexpected behavior occurs in more than one user account on your Mac, try checking for software or hardware problems.

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    Take care.

    You mean an iPad 2 Air, I guess because Apple sells more iPad 2. Other preinstalled applications launch OK? Try a forced reboot. This will not affect anything.

    To force the reboot your device, press and hold the two buttons of sleep/wake and home for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    I have an ASUS S400CA, bit Win8 64 runnings. I bought this laptop in February 3013, and have had significant problems since the first day.

The computer would also regularly hang and then crash without reason apparent under different levels of load on different surfaces. The temperature was not always high.
    An update of the system early in the piece alleviated problems, there were more accidents hang and error athw8x.sys became much less common, happening now at most once a day.

    Hi Mitchell,

    This problem may occur because of file system corrupted or because of the conflict between certain third-party applications.

    You did any hardware or software changes on the computer before this problem?

    Method 1:
    I suggest you run the SFC (System File Checker) and check if it helps.

    a. open Windows Explorer.
    b. press Windows + X key , and then click command prompt (Admin).
    c. type the command: sfc/scannow , and then press enter.
    d. restart the computer and check.


    Method 2:

    If the problem persists, I suggest you to check whether or not you are facing the same problem in Mode without failure. If the problem does not occur in Mode without failure, you can configure the computer to boot and check if it helps.

    Step 1:
    I suggest to return the item and start the computer in Mode safe. Check if it helps.

    Start settings for Windows (including safe mode)
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows-8/Windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode

    Step 2:
    If the problem does not occur in Mode safe run clean boot and check.

    By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

    Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow the "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" section in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    Hello

    Each method/step below progresses to another if the first does not all corrupted files which are, etc..

    Have you read this information from Microsoft on the repair of errors and corrupted system files?

    «Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files»

    https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/929833

    _________________________________________________

    And these eightforums.com tutorials are very detailed for the problems resulting from Scan SFC:

    http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/3047-sfc-scannow-command-run-Windows-8-a.html

    Read it in conjunction with the rest of the information they give link above.

    Note

    If SFC could not fix something, then run the new command to see if it can be able to next time. Sometimes, it can take by running the sfc/scannow command 3 times restart the PC after each time completely fix everything what he is capable of.

    If not, then run the Dism/online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth command to repair damage to the component store,

    Repair-WindowsImage-online - CheckHealth

    Repair-WindowsImage-online - ScanHealth

    Repair-WindowsImage-online - RestoreHealth

    Restart the PC afterwards, and then retry the command sfc/scannow .

    If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

    If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

    If not yet, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the section THREE OPTION to manually replace the files SFC could not fix.

    Refresh your PC goes like this:

    • The PC starts in Windows RE (Recovery Eenvironment).
    • Windows RE scans the hard drive for your data, settings, and applications and puts them aside (on the same drive).
    • Windows RE installs a new copy of Windows.
    • Windows RE restores the data, settings, and applications, which it set aside in the newly installed copy of Windows.
    • The PC reboots into the newly installed copy of Windows.

    "When you reboot your PC, the drive will be completely reset and all your applications and your files will be removed it." Windows 8 will be reinstalled, and you need to change any settings, and then reinstall all the apps you want to come back after the reset. If you know if all the files you don't want to lose, then you must back up these files before you start resetting.

  • Firefox does not open on Windows 10 no matter what I try. Is there something that can solve this problem?

    I tried to contact support Windows 10 and they were useless. It was working fine all day and does not open all of a sudden.

    This sounds like a file in your Firefox profile may be damaged or not valid. To check if this is the case, you will need to create a secondary Firefox profile and test to see if you can open Firefox with this profile.

    This can be done using the Manager of profiles for Firefox which can be downloaded from Mozilla's FTP server. There is no installation required, the program is contained in a ZIP file. Simply extract the ZIP file and run the executable file inside.

    How to create a second profile Firefox, please see this support article:

    Note: Do not delete the old profile because if it is damaged, you may be able to recover your bookmarks and settings. For more information on how to proceed, please read the article of the recovery of data from an old profile .
