    Is there an ISO out there that includes all known updates + 17031 leak + whichever separate updates came after 17031 leak? I am getting a new motherboard and want to format & re-install Windows 8.1 without having to do all the updating afterwards - its far too tedious!

    I'm so confused...:/

    So, the result is Wzor's four msu files are the final one?

    KUC downloaded a few updates - Windows8.1-KB2905407-v2-x64, Windows8.1-KB2908810-v2-x64, Windows8.1-KB2913642-x64, Windows8.1-KB2913705-x64, Windows8.1-KB2922717-x64, Windows8.1-KB2925384-v4-x64, Windows8.1-KB2925981-x64, Windows8.1-KB2930145-x64 on top of the PreRelease and it seems I can install these updates, some of which date back to 2013! Should I do that? KUC also suggests I remove PreRelease packages, which I guess is not something I should do if I am to keep leak 17031 working properly, isn't it?

    I did install Windows8.1-KB2925384-v4-x64 before I realized that it was a bad idea... Did it likely break something that would require me to reinstall all of 17031 leak?

    Nice program.

    But can you make separate thread ?

    And can you include:
    • Battery status ?
    • LAN / WLAN status ?
    Small design errors:
    • When I move "Start Screen Unlimited" to the bottom of the start screen, then the pull down menu (e.g. power menu) opens downwards - out of screen area; should open upwards.
    • When I move "Start Screen Unlimited" to the bottom of the start menu then - after a reboot - it appears on top of start menu.
    • After a reboot it took approx. 25 seconds before "Start Screen Unlimited" appears on start menu.
    • In power menu "Hibernate" appears - even if I have disabled hibernation (via powercfg -h off).
    • The date is shown multilingual (German for me); but the pull down menu is English.

    I have W8.1 in spanish.
    If I installed the Update 1 as per all the resources provided by MDL, will the final language in spanish too?
    So, are the .msu published by MDL language dependent ???

    MSU files are common for all language packs, AFAIK. :)

    Sorry, I felt that error was something due to Windows 8.1 Spring Update1 coz without directx 9.0c the assembly folder opens like any other normal folder in windows 8.1 and shows two or three folders with ribbon interface but as soon as the directx 9.0c is installed it changes to the above screen with folder band present like in windows 7.

    I didn't knew it was present in older versions too.

    I got same on fresh install RTM + dx9 and fresh install RTM with Integrated Spring Update +dx9.
    Maybe Office or Visual Studio causing that.
