Metro Apps don't open on Local and Domain account. Works on Microsoft Live account. Windows 8.1 Pro

This is Happening on Three different computers.
All computers are Windows 8.1 Pro. This is a clean install.
When the computer is initially setup, I first sign on with my Windows Live ID and everything seems to work fine there.
After Joining the computer to the domain, none of the Metro UI apps will open, they open briefly and close.
Added a local account and found that it also does not work there.
Steps I have tried to resolve this:
Modified owner and permissions on registry Key: HKCR\AppID\{3EB3C877-1F16-487C-9050-104DBCD66683}
Changed owner to Local Administrator and gave full controll to Local Admin and Domain user account.
Ran DCOMCNFG and under Computers ->My Computer-> WinInetCacheServer Properties I went to the IDENTITY TAB and changed
it to the Interactive User.
That did not help.
Ran this command: "powershell
-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml" from elevated command prompt and also did not help.
I tried downloading the App troubleshooter but it would not run.
I also tried "wsreset.exe" and got an error saying: " Windows cannot find 'ms-windows-storePurgeCaches'. Make sure you typed the name
correctly, and then try again"
When Trying to open the app and it fails I get this error under Applications in Event Viewer:
"Activation of app winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy!Windows.Store failed with error: This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information."
Anyone know how to resolve this.
We are looking to implement Windows 8.1 Pro to our clients pretty soon and need to get this resolved asap.
Thanks

Hi,
Did you mean that this problem only after you join the computer to the domain? if so, you may need to check whether you domain controller would install any program to your system. or you can contact domain adminstrator for further assistance.
In addition, run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML

    my downloaded apps are not opening, they flash and then shut down. This hapened after i upgraded to the 5.0. How do i fix it!? I've tried everything

    You need to resync you applications or redownload them for free via app store. They may be read by your phone, but they are really not there. Re downloading will fix this.

    Why My iPhone 4s close most of my apps when i opened them immediately and return back to home screen ?

    Download a free app and see if that helps, you can delete the app later if you do not want it.

    WiFi will work, cellular will work but they may not be able to access LTE, they will have to send it back to you for the warranty work.

  • Why does the apps store not accept my ID and password, it works fine to log into this forum and it works for the apple store, but not to log in to buy apps, it just keeps telling me that the id or password is wrong, and I know it isn't

    Pat,
    Use Activity Monitor to keep an eye on your disk use and memory use. You may hear different figures, but I like to see my free disk and free memory above 25%. Sometimes all it takes is a Restart. Try to minimize the number of browser windows you have open at once. Quit unused applications.
    Many of us in this discussion area like to use OnyX periodically. It clears caches and repairs permissions, etc. You can download it from this site.  Be sure to download the one for the OS version you are using. There is a script called Automation within OnyX that allows you to start it and come back later when it's done with several actions.

    Cant get help with this issue on Apple Support, so I have to go to the Apple store to the Genius Bar to get assistance.  All the help issues are so technical in their jargon, that I cannot understand how to fix the issue.

  • Safari and some apps don't open

    Safari and some other apps do not open after i have 'reset all settings'

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output andWi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Non-Apple apps don't open after iOS5 upgrade (with fix)

    Hi, I thought I'd add this thread in case it's useful to someone else with the same problem.
    I had a iPhone 4 on latest 4.3.5 and upgraded via iTunes to iOS5 this morning.
    None of my non-Apple apps would open, they'd just open and close instantly. So Facebook, Tweetdeck, Things, BBC News etc wouldn't work but ones like Reminders, App Store etc would.
    I did a restore and restore from a backup and this didn't fix the problem.
    I removed the apps from memory (home double-click) and rebooted the phone and still the non-Apple apps wouldn't load.
    So finally I thought I'd reinstall the apps from scratch, deleted Facebook and grabbed it again from the App Store.
    This worked and fired up as normal, tried the others non-Apple apps and they all work too!
    No idea why, not sure if it's specifically the Facebook app or if I could have done that too any of them.
    All sorted now and iOS5 is lovely

    Confirmed!
    I had the same problem, deleted a weather app (so no valuable data attached to it) re-installed it and all the other apps seem to work again.
    Which single app you delete & reload doesn't seem to matter, I think you just need to re-establish the connection between the device and your App Store account in order to trigger some kind of background authorization.
    It might also work by deleting nothing and just grabbing a new, free app.

  • Third Party Apps Don't Open

    I activated a Lumia 928 two days ago and immediately discovered that the 3rd party apps do not open.  I've done a soft and hard reset multiple times.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the apps with no luck.  Any more suggestions?

  • HT204266 my app don't open

    I try to open my app to download some game and don't open so is itunes.This is happen on my ipad 2.Please help me.

    Try closing all apps via the taskbar and see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e. not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • After i synch many apps don't open

    After I synch with iTunes many of my iPad apps no longer open. My laptop's iTunes has multiple login IDs, but these apps I have downloaded myself. I select the manual synch, but then don't really have the opportunity to make any manual selections.

    If the apps aren't opening or are crashing on the iPad, then if it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    In terms of syncing what shows on the iPad's Apps tab on your computer's iTunes - are the apps greyed out so that you can't tick them, or is it that nothing happens when you try to sync them ?

  • My apps don't open after updating

    HELP!! I updated my ipad before i slept and this morning, apps such as keynote, QuickOffice, and Wallpaper don't open. They appear for a split second after i tap on the icon and the screen returns to the menu of apps again. I can see them in the bottom toolbar, though... so does that mean that they're open but have some sort of malfunction?? HELP!!

    thanks! I got really ticked off and went to the nearest Mac shop and here's what we did: 1. made sure that my store account in my laptop was the same one that i'm using with the ipad. 2. tried to sync (but this failed). 3. downloaded some of the apps to the LAPTOP. 4. did a sync... AND IT WORKED!!!
    Thanks for the help, guys!

  • Hi everyone, I've had problems with some apps on my iPad. The apps don't open after update

    How do I fix apps that don't open after update?

    Try a hard reset ie hold the power and home buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (ignore the red slider). Are you still using iOS 4.3.3, as in your profile? A lot of apps now need an iOS of 6 or higher for the update to download.

  • Windows Apps don't open.

    Not a huge issue for me but, I think it's weird that it worked in the previous build, and on build 10041 it's having problems.
    All regular downloaded programs run fine.
