Windows Central Question

After one on the updates I experienced crash of the Start Menu and all the tiled applications - I do not have access to them .

Now I cannot even switch off Windows in a 'regular' way ( I have to use Command Prompt and type "shutdown" with appropriate parameters).
I cannot use any tiled application, either.

I tried
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
but it did not help.

I do not want to refresh system, as I will lose my installed applications.

I managed to get back access to the Desktop Applications by using the Win 8.1 trick (additional Programs menu on the taskbar), but this is only a partial by-pass.

Any support highly appreciated.
