Looks like a bug in Windows 8.1, you're just gonna have to wait it out. I think.

Update your graphics card drivers. If there aren't any drivers for Win8.1 install the Win8/Win7 ones.

I Did! I tried both of them and it still didnt work. also all my other games work properly!

I would send the crash report to Mojang. But, before you do that, I'd like to ask a couple questions:

How many GB of RAM do you have on your computer?
What is your graphics card?
How well did Minecraft run on your computer before you updated to Windows 8.1?

RAM: 3GB
Graphics Card: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series
Did Mincraft Run Well Before You Updated: Yes It Worked Perfectly Fine.

Okay guys! The problem has been fixed. I restored my Windows 8 to Windows 7 again. Thanks for all your help!

The same problem happened to me. You have to update your video card drivers.
