    Upgraded to Windows 8.1 via the Windows Store. Now I can't open the store at all.

    Anyone else with this problem?

    Yeah, have tried those steps.

    I made an unconnected account and can open the store app with it. Disconnected my account from the store and rebooted but still no luck. Reconnected to my outlook.com account and still didn't work. :-/

    try recreating your user a/c, had that problem in early win8 days and it helped (don't know about win8.1)

    possible, sometimes it takes couple reboots to get things in order
    try and run sfc /scannow just to make sure all is correct in core files

    Would I have to delete my account to do that?

    create a new a/c with adifferent and admin privaledges and delete the one you are using right now (and yes I am talking about your pc a/c and not your MS a/c)
