    UEFI Bootable USB Flash Drive - Create in Windows

    I have now installed ver. 3.0.1 and when I open it and click on SELECT, it takes me to a WUDT file for microsoft downloads on my pc. Is that what's missing on ver3.13? Under SELECT there no options, just the wudt file...should I be opening that ? if so why does it need a download tool when all...

    WIN 8.1 ISO FILE

    Does this file just replace/re-install Win 8.1 or does it do anything else? I almost used it instead of a Recovery Thumb Drive thinking it would replace and not repair Win 8.1... Thank you for help!

    PC slowed down considerably esp. in regular boot mode; safe mode is much better but still slowed a bit
