It's a windows 8 issue. I think. Try this thread, I had a problem like this.

 

I looked at the post and says I should use powershell to run it, how to I make a powershell script to unpack

 

I didn't need to do that, the last post was after the issue was resolved.

 

Open a command prompt (or Powershell). Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Command Prompt (or something similar, my memory is a bit hazy here as I always pull it up directly).
Navigate to your Starbound/win32 folder (type without quotes "cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\win32").
Run (without quotes) "asset_unpacker ..\assets\packed.pak ..\assets\unpacked\"

This is pretty much all the unpack_assets.bat file does, you can do it yourself. Make sure the "unpacked" folder does not exist when you run this (delete it first if you have an old version of the unpacked assets laying around). Note that you can run the win32 asset unpacker on Windows x64 if you want, it really doesn't matter. If you don't have an SSD it's gonna take a few minutes, there's no progress bar or anything so be patient (you'll see the prompt come up ready for another command to be typed when it's done). If you're confused by the directions for the command prompt, look it up on Google (there are plenty of tutorials for the command prompt out there and this is just basic stuff).

All else fails, search the forums. There's several good modding guides out there that also cover this step.
