I need to download to update Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, but it says i need all previous update first. Windows Update find this updates, but it stuck at download 0%. Is there a way to download all the updates prior to 8.1 into a single package?

Before upgrade to Windows 8.1 from the Windows Store, you do not need to install all Windows 8 updates from Windows Update. You only need to install KB2871389 update, then you’ll be able to install the Windows 8.1 update via the Windows Store. Download and install KB2871389 update from link or from Windows Update.

KB2871389 (direct download link)
- All supported x86-based versions of Windows 8: http://download.microsoft.com/downl...5E-794177982162/Windows8-RT-KB2871389-x86.msu
- All supported x64-based versions of Windows 8: http://download.microsoft.com/downl...49-140AB1CF7B5F/Windows8-RT-KB2871389-x64.msu

But if you've opened the Windows Store and you don't see the Windows 8.1 update, then you will need to also install KB2917499 update.

I will download those and post results back thanks. It was really annoying me this update problem, stuck at 0% i don't know if it's downloading and is just a graphical glitch or indeed is not downloading. I prefer to installed them myself.

I don't know what is wrong with it. Take a look at this post: link

That worked perfectly, thanks so much for the suggestion with 8.2 ISO.
