<div style="font-size: 13px;">
The reason behind this problem is a built-in service which is called "<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Windows Update</strong>". If this service is not running in background and if the service is set to disabled in Windows 8, you'll always get this strange error message while downloading any app from Windows 8 Store.</div>

Solution is very simple. You just need to re-enable "Windows Update" service and your problem will be fixed. Simply follow these simple steps to fix the problem:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">1.</strong> Press <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Win+R</strong> keys together to launch RUN dialog box. Type <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">services.msc</strong> in the textbox and press Enter. It'll open Services Manager.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">2.</strong> Scroll down to bottom and you'll see a service "<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Windows Update</strong>" in the list. Double-click on it and set its <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Startup type</strong> to <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Automatic</strong>.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<img alt="Windows_Update_Service_Automatic_Running.png" pxz:uid="-3cfd65c4-2" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/Windows_Update_Service_Automatic_Running.png" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">3.</strong> That's it. Close services manager window and now you'll not face any problem while downloading any app from Windows 8 Store.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
I don't see any reason behind disabling "Windows Update" service in Windows 8 as its an important service which helps in protecting your Windows by installing latest security and other updates released by Microsoft. If someone is using a pirated Windows 8 OS, there are chances that the user disabled the service to prevent Windows from installing updates which automatically detects pirated Windows in computers. It might also possible that some users disable the service accidentally which is rare though...</div>

While using computers its quite obvious to face problems. There are many Windows 8 users who face strange problems while using Windows Store apps. Some of most frequently faced problems are as following:</div>

Many times you might also get various error messages while trying to open Windows Store or an app. There are also many users who face problems while using Microsoft account feature in Windows 8.

Most of the times these kind of issues are fixed automatically upon a computer restart but sometimes these issues can give you headaches.</div>
<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
Today we are going to share 2 free troubleshooting utilities released by Microsoft which automatically detect issues in your Windows 8 computer and fix them within few seconds: Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter and Microsoft Accounts Troubleshooter.</div>
<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
"<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter</strong>" has been developed to troubleshoot and fix all known problems which have been faced by Windows 8 users while using various metro apps downloaded from Windows Store. When you launch it, it automatically detects following issues:</div>

<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
Once it finds an issue, it fixes it automatically. If a restart is required, it asks you to restart the system and your problems related to Windows Store or metro apps will be solved.</div>

<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<div style="line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;">By now, </span><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 19px;">you've</span><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;"> no doubt heard of Paranoid Android. In fact, there’s a good chance that if you own the </span></span>Galaxy Nexus<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;">, </span></span>Nexus 4<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;">, </span></span>Nexus 7<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;">, or </span></span>Nexus 10<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px;">; you’re either running the ROM yourself or you’ve given it a try in the past.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
For the few unfamiliar, Paranoid Android’s defining characteristic is what they call Hybrid Engine. Contrary to what many believe, this is not “tablet mode,” though that is one of many things that can be accomplished using Hybrid Engine. Rather, Hybrid Engine allows you to select both dpi and layout on a<em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">per-app</em> basis. Rather than being forced to modify the look of your entire device, you can optimize your applications to what works best for each and every one.</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
A new and important feature that has come to light in the recent beta builds, and now sees light in the official release of PA3 is the PIE control system. What this allows one to do is to disable onscreen buttons and use a swipe gesture to access various common functions, thereby freeing up valuable screen real estate. The menu can be seen in the header image above, as well as the video below.</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">

Per-app color, another significant feature in PA3 and recent pre-release builds, allows you set system UI colors on a per-app basis. Want a black system bar for your launcher, but a blue one for Facebook? No problem. Have more eccentric choices in mind? That’s fine too.</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">

The most recent (and most specific) addition is screen calibration for the Google Nexus 4. While the vast majority of third-party reviews have praised the device for its screen, build quality, responsiveness, and overall value; some have been quick to point out that the screen seems under-saturated, especially to those coming from  overly saturated S-AMOLED devices. Rather than trying to offer a simple band-aid solution with RGB calibration, PA3 also corrects for the device’s gamma issues to give it the punch the IPS panel deserves. While you’ll be hard-pressed to find  anyone who says that the Nexus 4 screen looks “bad,” the calibration has been met with much praise thus far, and the team only hopes that these changes are incorporated upstream.</div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: #351c75; font-size: large;">HOW TO UNLOCK BOOT LOADER ON XPERIA TX? </span></b></span><br />
<br />
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">GO <a href="http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/unlock/step1">Here</a> and click Yes, I am Sure.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Read through and accept the legal terms. Click I Accept.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Enter your name, a valid email adress and the first 14 digits of your phone’s IMEI or MEID number (remove the last digit if necessary). Click Submit. You can view the IMEI or MEID number by entering *#06# on your phone.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The unlock boot boot loader key will be sent to your email. Save it for later use.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Download and install the latest Android SDK from <a href="http://developer.android.com/">developer.android.com</a>.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Download and unzip <a href="http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/fastboot-driver/">this</a> file. This is the standard android_winusb.inf-file, with a few lines of code added to enable Fastboot to support Sony and Sony Ericsson devices. Make sure you are running Google USB Driver package revision 4 or higher in your Android SDK. You can see current Google USB Driver package revision in the SDK Manager.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Place the unzipped file in the usb_driver folder, located in the Android SDK > extras > google folder on your computer. Accept to replace the old android_winusb.inf-file with the new file. If you can't find the usb_driver folder, please install the Google USB Driver Packager using the Android SDK manager.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Turn off your phone.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">On your phone, push and hold the Volume up(+) button at the same time as you connect the phone to the computer with a USB-cable.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">On your computer, you will be asked for drivers. Point to the usb_driver folder where you placed the android_winusb.inf-file, and select the Android Boot loader Interface-file.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Go to the tools folder within the Android SDK folder and Open a command window(press shift button and right click on the window and select Open Command Window here).</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Enter fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version, and verify that you get a response back (for example "0.3"). This means your phone is connected properly.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Warning! If you perform this step, you will unlock the boot loader. This may void your warranty and/or any warranty from your operator. If you still want to unlock the boot loader of your phone, enter fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY, where KEY is the unlock boot loader key you got in the beginning of this instruction. The boot loader should now be successfully unlocked.</span></li>

<b><span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">WHAT
IS ISAS?<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">The ISAS (invisible swipe areas) can be
used to swipe with one finger from the sides to to center of the screen (like
you would bring up the pie) to trigger actions. E.g. you could use the 3 ISAS
at the bottom of the screen to trigger back, home and recents with just swipes
when the navbar is hidden. Those swipes are as fast and reliable as normal
button presses. In order to make the ISAS work you have to do the following
setup:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">activate gestures via setMode (because
ISAS are being recognized via the internal gesture engine)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Configure min bbox size. Actually this is
the length in pixel the swipe must be long, so that the corresponding action
for the ISA is being triggered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Configure activation area size. This is
the height (for bottom/top ISAS) or the width (for left/right ISAS) of the
area, where the swipe must be started in. So the lower the value, the more
precise you have to start the swipe at the side of the screen<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Last but not least the touchscreen to
screen factors: As for some devices the touchscreen uses a different coordinate
system as the screen, you have to adjust here the values for x and y. For the
Nexus devices I added those values already to the OP and in later versions I'll
introduce a kind of auto calibrate. But for now it is a little bit of
testing...<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">Once the setup is complete you can assign
your actions to the 12 available ISAS!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Agency FB","sans-serif"; font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%;">If ISAS isn’t working correctly, try changing these
settings:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Desktop Tile Missing from Windows 8 Start Screen, Can’t Add from All Apps Page

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
</div>
<br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Start Screen</strong> in <span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: underline;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Windows 8</strong></span> is one of the most impressive things (for some people) and at the same time one of the most irritating things (for many people) present in the OS. Start Screen works like a replacement for the good old Start Menu. It shows big <span style="color: #db7100; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; background-image: none; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-style: none !important; border-left-width: 0px !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-right-width: 0px !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-top-width: 0px !important; display: inline !important; float: none !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1px !important; position: static; width: auto !important;">tiles</span></span> of programs in form of a grid. You can add new tiles or remove existing tiles to customize Start Screen appearance.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
Windows 8 also shows all program shortcuts in a new "<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">All Apps</strong>" page which is actually a part of the new Start Screen. If you removed a shortcut accidentally or if you want to restore a removed shortcut, you can go to this "All Apps" page and can pin or add the shortcut again to Start Screen.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
But sometimes Windows 8 users face a strange problem. Actually Windows 8 Start Screen shows a rectangle tile of <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Desktop</strong> which allows you to switch to <span style="color: #db7100; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; background-image: none; border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-style: none !important; border-left-width: 0px !important; border-right-style: none !important; border-right-width: 0px !important; border-top-style: none !important; border-top-width: 0px !important; display: inline !important; float: none !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1px !important; position: static; width: auto !important;">Desktop</span></span> from Start Screen. Due to some unknown reasons, sometimes <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Desktop tile gets deleted</strong> from Windows 8 Start Screen.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<img alt="Desktop_Tile_Missing_Windows_8_Start_Screen.png" pxz:uid="1230e05b683-1" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/Desktop_Tile_Missing_Windows_8_Start_Screen.png" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
If the user tries to add it using All Apps page by pressing Ctrl+Tab keys, it doesn't show in the list as shown in following screenshot:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<img alt="Desktop_Shortcut_Missing_Apps_List.png" pxz:uid="1230e05b684-2" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/Desktop_Shortcut_Missing_Apps_List.png" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
It becomes quite irritating and there is no way to add the Desktop tile back to Start Screen. The reason behind this strange problem is unknown, it might be possible that some 3rd party software removed the tile or may be temporary files cleaning software such as CCleaner removed the shortcut? But the real reason is still unknown. Anyway lets move to the solution of this problem!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
Actually Desktop tile shown at Start Screen is a special type of shortcut which is present in "<strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Programs</strong>" folder and if the shortcut gets deleted from the folder, it also disappears from Start Screen and you'll not find it in "All Apps" page as well.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
<img alt="Desktop_Shortcut_Missing_Programs_Folder.png" pxz:uid="1230e05b397-3" src="http://media.askvg.com/articles/images4/Desktop_Shortcut_Missing_Programs_Folder.png" style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
To restore Desktop tile at Start Screen, you just need to copy Desktop shortcut in "Programs" folder again and it'll reappear at Start Screen.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px;">
