Windows Server store apps not working

Question

I am using Windows Server and create a new admin user.

Now when I run it's open but goes hide after 2-3 seconds. When I check the left-side top then it's still exist.

In Event Viewer I got this error:

App winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy!Windows.Store did not launch within its allotted time.

Activation of app winstore_cw5n1h2txyewy!Windows.Store failed with error: The system cannot find the file specified. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information.

A list of things that might help with App Store problems (source) :

1. Make sure your computer is fully patched including optional updates
2. Make sure UAC is turned on
3. If you are using skydrive, you may need to have your Microsoft profile filled out completely or apps stop working after installing skydrive
4. check DCOM settings
   a. go to the start screen (from the desktop click the windows start key)
   b. type comexp.msc
   c. click Component Services, click Computers, and then click My Computer
   d. right-click My Computer, click Properties
   e. click Default Properties tab. Make sure Enable Distributed COM on this computer is checked.
   f. click COM Security tab. Click Edit Limits under Access Permissions. Make sure All Application Packages has Local Access Checked
   g. on the COM Security tab click Edit Limits under the Launch and Activation Permissions section. Make sure All Application Packages has Local Launch and Local Activation permissions.
5. try running the Apps Troubleshooter. You should be able to find it in your c:\ folder. It is called AppsDiagnostic.diagcab.
6. Check the "All Application Packages" permissions
7. Clear the store cache
   a. Press Windows key+R b. Type wsreset.exe and click OK
8. Fix Proxy issues, as a windows internal HTTP service might not be using the proxy settings defined in IE. Running the following command changes the service to use the IE proxy settings. Open a command prompt with 'Run as Administrator' and type:
   netsh
winhttp
import proxy source=ie
9. Disable Proxy connection if enabled (use this only if your network setup does not require a proxy)
   a. press Windows+W and type ‘Internet Options’ and press enter.
   b. click on 'Connections' tab.
   c. click on 'LAN settings'.
   d. uncheck 'Use a proxy server for your LAN'.
   e. under ‘Automatic Configuration’ select 'Automatically detect settings'.
   f. click on ‘Ok’ and click on ‘Apply’ and ‘Ok’ again.
10. Enable HyperV (probably doesn't apply here)
11. Uninstall your antivirus if not from Microsoft.
12. Ensure the date/time and time zone are correct.
13. Try another administrator user account.
14. Ensure you're using a Windows Live account.
15. sfc /scannow.
16. Turn off Internet sharing.
17. If the problem is new, rollback your system to a system restore point dating from before the problem started
18. Refresh your Windows 8 system from a Recovery Drive while keeping all of your data, settings, and apps.
19. If you have upgraded from Windows 7, do a clean install of Windows 8.

Answer 2

In my case only updating NVidia Graphics Driver helped to resolve issue with all Windows Store Apps not working on Windows 10. I had this in Application Event Logs:

 because of an issue with Windows binary \Device\HarddiskVolume2\Windows\System32\nvspcap64.dll. This could be because the binary is unsigned, contains an untrusted signature, or has been corrupted or tampered with. Refresh your PC to fix this issue.
