Windows 8 metro apps not opening... Hello to all!!
I'm very frustrated. The windows 8 metro apps like Mail, People, Skype etc. except store are not opening. , when I open the metro apps, the apps opens but then the app just minimizes to the taskbar. When I try to maximize it, it minimizes again. The metro tiles are working fine and they update frequently, but the main app doesn't open. I have Windows 8.1 Update 1 which is freshly installed less than a month ago, there is no av on system, also no virus issue (regular update on demand scan is scheduled)
Is there a shortcut to repair this problem?
Here's a video that describes my problem.
