Windows 10 – Some metro apps not working

I had this problem with the metro apps, even with the “Settings”. When I pressed a metro app or the settings the start menu freezes and the app is not opening. After some research the solution that worked “like a charm” is from Microsoft insider forum, the original post is: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_perf/windows-10-some-metro-apps-not-working/41695ba8-b856-46dd-80ef-d342e5bc0cb3

The solution that worked for me is this:

  1. Open an Elevated Powershell prompt by pressing the Windows Key, typing Powershell, then pressing Ctrl+Shift+Enter
  2. Paste the following command into Powershell and execute it:
    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml"}
