Unable to find WinRT apps option in visual studio

I have windows 8.1N and visual studio 2013 community, I want to make WinRT apps but i see listings only for blank silverlight projects.

enter image description here

When I go to properties of "My Computer" I see the following window.

enter image description here

It says windows 8.1 in the "Windows edition" section but it also says only Windows 8(the big blue text). I know windows 8 does not have support for making WinRT phone apps, can someone please tell me what exactly is the problem here.

You're quite close. Just click on "Universal Apps" in the new project screen and you'll see the templates for Windows Apps without Silverlight based on Windows Runtime.enter image description here

If not, go to programms & features and modify your Visual Studio installation. Select "Tools for Maintaining Windows Store Apps" like below. enter image description here
