Hi,

Been away for a while.....too much work. Installed Windows 8.1 over Windows 8.0 on 4 computers, like everyone through the store or via MS website.

One computer does not see the upgrade in the store and when going to the MS website, refuses to install.

This has probably to do with the fact that there are 8 updates that does not install either.

Sure when installing the updates, one gets the message that updates completed and you see only optional updates.

But when closing the screen, reopening, updates are there again.

Mailed MS last week, but no answer......

Anyone to get me in the right direction to overcome this?????


thanks


Jeff

You could try downloading the windows 8.1 ISO as described here and then do an upgrade or clean install. You will need a generic product ID to do the install and then activate with your Windows 8 key afterwords. Do the download from the computer you are trying to upgrade so you get the correct "bit-ness" (32 or 64 bit) Post #45 in the thread offers the simplest explanation.

Windows 8.1 generic keys

Core: 334NH-RXG76-64THK-C7CKG-D3VPT
Professional: XHQ8N-C3MCJ-RQXB6-WCHYG-C9WKB
Enterprise: MNDGV-M6PKV-DV4DR-CYY8X-2YRXH
FHQNR-XYXYC-8PMHT-TV4PH-DRQ3H

Keys to install (and appropriate for KMS activation):
gvlkCore = M9Q9P-WNJJT-6PXPY-DWX8H-6XWKK
gvlkProfessional = GCRJD-8NW9H-F2CDX-CCM8D-9D6T9

I'm in the USA.
You're in Belgium.

That probably explains the situation.

ok, after a week or so, i did get someone from MS on the Phone.

They checked my PC from outside and told me that my computer was corrupted....All i did last year was "uninstall" things like Store and so.

Anyway, bottom line = i have to reinstall 8.0 in order to get the upgrade done.

So this will not be for now.

I could mark this solved, but it isn't....
