Windows 8 Tiles won't update

[Si.]

Hi All

My wife just recently got a new laptop with Windows 8 installed. she likes it but there are 2 updates that just refuse to install, the Camera and Skydrive apps from the store. Both constantly report as either pending or installing but never complete.

Any ideas?

Yes, just checked and it is activated.

Other apps seem to update OK it's just these 2 specific ones. I've tried un-installing and re-installing them but no luck.

Yes, lots of reboots, it's been like this for a week now.

Date and time is correct, time zone is correct. All Windows updates installed, nothing in event logs and reliability history is 10/10
