I'm having this problem as well. First noticed it after installing the January 2015 Patch Tuesday updates. Have you found a solution?

There are many other users experiencing this problem too.
See here, here and here.
Check the following:
You need at least 1024X768 resolution for Metro(Windows Store) apps to work
Confirm if the issue reproduces with all user accounts. Metro apps aren’t supported if you are running with a built-in administrator
account (happens mostly when upgrading)
Check if UAC (User Account Control) is enabled. UAC must be enabled for Metro apps to work. It’s possible that a third party application
may have disabled the User Account Control, in which case the apps
won’t work. To check, simply type UAC from the home screen and it will
appear on the Settings search result
Try using a local account instead of a Microsoft Account (Live ID)
If you use an NVIDIA video card, follow the steps here.
Also try this (worked for some users):
-Run Command Prompt as Administrator
-Type "sfc /scannow" (without quotes)
-Press Enter and wait (10/30 minutes)
-Restart your PC and everything should be ok
Still doesn't work? Follow the steps here.
