[QUOTE="Deleted member 178, post: 173232"] hi guys, If you are used to often reinstall your system from scratch and you only have Win8 installation disk/recovery partition and you want update right away to Win8.1 without downloading and installing the whole pack of updates (around 750mb...that will be deleted anyway) for Win8; this is what you have to do: 1- open Windows Updates 2- check for updates 3- your PC needs Windows updates, KB 2871389 and KB 2917499, before Windows 8.1 becomes available to you in the Store; look for them in Windows Updates and install them. 4- reboot, Windows will install the updates. 5- it is done, now you can upgrade to Win8.1 via Windows Store good luck :D [/QUOTE]
