I have same issue. I believe my system may be corrupted so I want to rebuild 8.1. I bought Win8 from Microsoft and was delivered from Arvato digital. I also bought the win 8 DVD ISO from them so I have a copy. I then upgraded to win8.1 via windows store on computer. But of course I do not KNOW what the new KEY is and cannot get a fresh download of a 8.1 ISO. This fix you suggest, unless I am doing something wrong doesn't work anymore because now if you cancel the 8 download and try to start a 8.1 download it will ask for a valid 8.1 key, which Microsoft did not give me when I upgraded from the window store. Is there a way around this situation MS has me in?? Thx in advance for the assistance!! Can I find out what my VALID assigned window store 8.1 key is?? i REALLY DO NOT WANT TO GO ALL THE WAY BACK TO WIN 8 AND COME FORWARD!! Please advise!!
