Where to find Windows Modern UI apps' source code?

You can find the source code for some of the apps in: (There's probably another folder since this isn't all the apps I have)

C:\Program Files\WindowsApps

For those of you who do not have permissions to access the folder follow these instructions:

  1. Type in “C:\Program Files\Applications” in the Windows Explorer address bar and hit enter. enter image description here
  2. Observe in shock and dismay the system dialogue saying you don’t own a folder on your own machine. Hit “Continue”. enter image description here
  3. After hitting “Continue”, you’ll be confronted by the following dialogue: enter image description here Do not hit “close”, instead click the “security tab” link.
  4. In the following system dialogue click “advanced”. enter image description here
  5. Click the “change” link in the owner security field. enter image description here
  6. Add in your live ID or windows 8 user name to the “select user or group” system dialogue. enter image description here
  7. Click “OK”, Click “OK”, Click “Ok”. enter image description here
