Preinstalled apps greyed on Start Menu Build 10049

[kwill]

Has anyone else run into the problem where the preinstalled apps (ex. Xbox, feedback, Photos, Videos, think Beta Store too) are greyed out on the Start Menu? I thought I had seen this mentioned before, but I haven't been able to find anything through searching.

​Ive already tried the various powershell commands for fixing various problems. Broke my start menu launching Ata all, but fixed it be deleting my old user profile and creating another one. Tried a refresh, but it didn't even complete. Just says it ran into a problem after getting to about 50% complete. Nothing seems to work.​

It's strange, try to go to the previous build (in Settings) and update again

I tried rolling back and tried doing a refresh. Both times it failed after getting a great deal of the way through it. Finally, I decided to try a full reinstall. Lets just say, that didn't go so well either. When it got finished, it went to reboot and said it couldn't boot due to an error in the boot process. I turned it off and tried again, same error. I finally decided to just boot from USB, and it wouldn't even after changing boot order. Did some digging and found I needed to remove my SD card. That worked, and I finally get into recovery. Got it to reset and reinstall clean. It got finished, but led me to another message about it wanted to wipe TPM. Hit escape and it rebooted.... back into recovery. Well, duh I had left the USB in. Pulled it rebooted and windows 8.1 finished installing.

After all that, I was exhausted. Decided to stay on 8.1 as 10 isn't that impressive, especially for tablets ; )
