Hello there, I'm new to this forum and I don't really know if I have posted in the correct section since there are too many threads to check, so I posted here. Apologies in advance for that!

Anyway, as the title says, after I've updated my Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, my Metro Apps won't work anymore. I tried lots of fixes I found on the Net, troubleshooting them, opening the command prompt, sfc/scannow, changing the resolution, going on safe mode and so on (I couldn't really remember what I did). I managed to fix the Store Apps but it's not 100% fixed since I can't download new apps from the store. Oh I also managed to fix Settings although it's not an App but I had trouble trying to open the settings a while ago.

I've tried some of the steps from here --> http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/21051-apps-tiles-not-working-responding-fix-windows-8-a.html I couldn't try the rest of the steps since I'm afraid it would cause harm to my laptop since I'm not a professional. I want to try refreshing the PC, but I have lots of softwares and online games that I've installed here and I don't want to reinstall everything again. :cry: I would like to try this method --> http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/3610-refresh-windows-8-create-use-custom-recovery-image.html but I'm not sure how reliable it is for keeping what I've installed.

Please help and give reliable suggestions that little ol' me can work with! Thanks in advance!
