Windows remains garbage problems galore with win8 on a mega expensive PC.
Knew I should have bought an iMac :-(

Every time I click on the app store it starts to open and then closes. I was trying to find a solution to it and one was to do a computer refresh. So i went to do that and thats when I noticed that the pc settings won't open either. I've done most of the methods that have been posted to other people's questions. Is there some other way to refresh?

Mr. Martinez did you try system restore? I recommend doing it before refreshing your pc or reinstalling windows. To access system restore go to start screen and type "system restore" then click on settings. After that click on create system restore point. A window will popup with a system properties header. Then click on system restore. Another window will pop up. Tick "choose a different restore point" and choose a restore point. It will restore your pc programs and settings to that point.
If this does not work then try reinstalling windows. I do not recommend refresh because the problem will still persist.

2013-07-19T13:27:22+00:00 I think this issue is from your antivirus. Did you install avast? If yes then follow this steps.
- Open Avast 8 UI
- Go to security>antivirus>behavior shield
- Click settings
- Uncheck "Monitor the system for unauthorized modifications"
- Try checking your PC settings
