Dear all,
I can not run the Windows Store apps after I updated my new laptop from Win 8 to 8.1. None of the Metro apps can be executed anymore. Each app will begin the run process, but the Metro UI returns after couple of seconds after the execution attempt. I do not get any error messages.
I have read earlier message threads concerning the issue and tried to solve it by following the instructions given by the specialists, but so far none of those instructions have solved the problem.
My HW
Acer Aspire v3 (772g) - http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Acer-Aspire-V3-772G-747A321-Notebook.93916.0.html
I have
1) checked that I have admin rights
2) checked that my account is a Windows Live account (not a local one)
2) disabled my virus software (McAfee, I have not found Avast in my computer)
3) run the The Windows apps troubleshooter. It indicates that I may not have up-to-date graphics card drivers - I have downloaded the final version from the manufacturer's home page (Acer) (and also from NVIDIA pages)
4) checked that my dispaly resolution is high enough (1900 x 1080)
I have not
1) unistalled and reinstalled the apps, beacuse I can not run the Store, in where the uninstallation and the reinstallation would take place
Any ideas how to proceed?
Thanks in advance
