Store Apps will not Launch after installing Update 3

[budja]

I'm hoping that someone may have the same issue and know the fix. I installed the update 3 developer preview 8.0.10521.155 this morning on my L920 (ATT). The install screen said it should take 10-15 mins, but ended up taking around a half hour. Since then I cannot open any apps other than the apps built into the OS (internet explorer, phone, messages, etc.) Anything installed from the app store immediately closes when i attempt to open and it brings me back to the home screen. I've tried a soft reset and it did not fix the problem. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd like to avoid a hard reset if I can since I've spent so much time customizing my phone and I have it just where I want. Thanks in advance for any help!

There's a long thread going on about the update, on this page I found some people with the same issue: http://forums.windowscentral.com/nokia-lumia-920/253686-3.htm

It would appear you just need to reinstall the apps again. Not sure what that does to any data you may have.

Thanks so much for the link. I'll try the add keyboard workaround and hope for the best.

for anyone interested adding a keyboard fixed my issue. It must have been a problem migrating data (including my apps). This forum is awesome
