Windows 8 Apps Opening Then Closing

Jonj1611

Hi,

I got a brand new laptop today with Windows 8 pre-installed, everything was running fine, opening, running apps etc then I took off the Mcafee Trial and put Bitdefender 2014 Total Security on it.

Everything was fine until I tried opening some apps from the live tiles, they open then close immediately, the only thing I can think of is Bitdefender is closing them.

Any ideas?

Thanks

It is my guess you have remnants left over from Mcafee that are causing a problem.Simple uninstall leaves stuff behind.Migrate to and download the following tool and save to your desktop.Double click to run it.

Mcafee removal tool

Yeah could well be, I completely uninstalled Bitdefender and still the problem remained, so will put Bitdefender back on.

Thank you for taking the time to post back your results, Jonj.

Since the situation is not caused by Bitdefender, I will close this topic.
