    Upgrade from W8 to 8.1

    Didn't work for me, i.e. it worked just like starting setup.exe directly from mounted iso which also offered to keep personal files etc., but applications were not kept in either case.

    Upgrade from W8 to 8.1

    The compatibility report was the quoted text and said nothing about drivers, update with "Keep private files" (or similar) makes me loosing the applications.

    Upgrade from W8 to 8.1

    Tried installing by booting from iso (all within Hyper-V though), got a window with title "Windows Setup", some header text "Compatibility report" and the following text in a textbox: "The computer started using the Windows installation media. Remove the installation media and restart your...

    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...

    Searching Windows store gives weird results

    I have no idea, I just wanted so see all available apps and searching with empty string gives zero. I just tested with a few other special characters: * / _ seems to return the same result as <space>. I also tried with \, it results in the same as above, but the \ is translated to / :think:

    Searching Windows store gives weird results

    And I had to change Microsoft account for various reasons and got the problem back again. Guess I cannot use prioritized forums (MSDN) to ask questions until Public release, anyway, Microsoft, please !!!

    Searching Windows store gives weird results

    Of course you mut have a Microsoft account, if you have only logged into local machine or a Windows domain and then added Microsoft account, I think it will not see all apps. If so, try to log out of machine or domain and directly into Microsoft account, search for apps (should be many), log out...

    Searching Windows store gives weird results

    I have 2 virtual instances of x64 W8 Enterprise. Searching #1 with " " (one space) return around 510 apps today. Same search on #2 returns only 30 apps (everytime I try). Anyone knows why ? Also the number of apps on #1 does not just steadily increase, it also fluctuates a little.

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    And what is really ironic is that neither a 12 hous clock with PM/AM nor a 24 hours clock is very metric. The real metric (SI, Systeme Internationale) time unit is second and only second. The funny idea of 24 or 2*12 hours in a day is probably 4000-5000 years old from the old sumerians :) Bad...

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    I think I am getting exactly what I want. Taskbar clock and "pop-up clock" (desktop and charm-menu clock in Metro, sorry Modern UI) obeys language/region settings, Calendar likewise. I do not have any mail at the moment (and I do not understand why MS has not enabled the e-mail app to use POP3)...

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    Thanks to all, I think I found the problem. The problem was that both english and my native language was added in Control Panel/Languages. When I removed the English all is well. I am still a little confused regarding this setting because I have no (display) language pack installed and do not...

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    HippsieGypsie: Same as windows "region" or Windows Control panel" etc., there are many ways to Rome.. And yes, of course I tried all this, as I said before: this is what I meant by "...day names and time format as choosen in language settings". R0bR: Do you use RTM ? (I think it was different...

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    Thanks both of you, however re-installation didn't change anything and yes I have checked "Region and Language" (b.t.w. now splitted into "Region" and "Language"), this is what I meant by "...day names and time format as choosen in language settings". The main thing is that most europeans are...

    Solved Calendar app time/date format

    Using Windows 8 Pro (RTM) Seems like the calendar app does not obey the language settings. W8 display language is English (US I think) and that is the way I want it even if I want day names and time format as choosen in language settings. Hints ?
