I tried all before for a broken Store on Win 8 and was about to give in because it does not only effect threStore.
Then Powershell fixed it.
Actually type this into Powershell not Command Prompt.
" run the following in a Command Window to re-register the Store app: "
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml
