Win 8 to 8.1 RTM install with C:\Users Symlink
This morning I tried to install the Technet RTM version of Win 8.1 from Win 8.0 x64. When I went through the process, the only option was keep nothing, which was the same thing that happened to me when I upgraded from Win7 to Win8. I have an SSD with C:\Users symlinked to another drive so I am assuming that, once again, there is no support for this in the installer. My main user account is a...

Recover old files after new CPU & MB install
Went from an Intel MB and CPU to an AMD setup before realizing that wouldn't just be able to boot into my existing windows installation when I first plug everything in. From what I've seen on the forums I've decided to reinstall Windows 8 on the machine. The problem is that I need to recover the files on the old Windows installation. I have 2 HDDs to play with.
What should I do? Make a...

Solved Tip when installing Windows 8.1 Pro from ISO
Hi there
When you install windows 8.1 from the ISO using a currently running version of Windows 8 (mount iso as a virtual DVD and run setup.exe) choose KEEP NONE at the prompt to clean install but DO NOT DELETE the WINDOWS.OLD file (will be located in the C drive) immediately.
Some of your drivers might not be found at Windows 8.1 install but if you use the control panel and select update...

Can Win 8.1 Act as a Service Pack
I am confused about the ways to install 8.1.
I have retail version of 8.0 installed on my Dell and pretty much set up to my satisfaction using Start8. I would like to eventually upgrade to 8.1 without reinstalling all my programs and retain all my customizations. When and from where can I get a download of 8.1 that is the 'final' version. I suppose it will be the RTM that is now available...

How do I install Windows 8.1 on my Dell Latitude 10?
I downloaded Windows 8.1 from MSDN. When I tried to run the setup from Windows, it said the OEM key is not supported with Windows 8.1. I surely can use a retail key from the MSDN account but that is my office account, and I should be able to use the key that I paid for anyways.
Is there any work around?
For example, on the desktop PC, when I edited the ISO file to bypass setup from asking...

Upgrade from W8 to 8.1
Is upgrading from Win 8 to Win 8.1 working ?
I used the downloaded .iso (MSDN), but it only offered to keep personal files, all applications were gone after install.
Is this the expected behavior ?
If yes, this will be difficult cause MS has stated that all 8 users must upgrade to 8.1
Anyone knows if the same applies to Server 2012 R2 (upgrade from 2012 to 2012 R2) ?

Plus, will a window.old file be created with files & programs...
