I have heard that there is registry value which allows the rearm time to be reset some times, but I haven't tried it.

Installing applications not localized to your language

+

I am using Windows 8 in Finnish and I noticed that some applications which I knew to be in store were missing. This was because they weren't translated into Finnish yet. The store was also telling me to install one update which didn't exist.

+

Simply press the Windows button, type "languages" and select "options". Then click "add a language", select "English" and then "English (United States).

+

Now the Store should also show English applications to you too.

+

If you are interested, the update which didn't exist in Finnish was for Skype for Windows 8.
