    Honestly, I feel like you have asked this question 1,000 times. The update on April 8th is the Spring Update. The same spring update that has been floating around for a few weeks now (only difference being one small MSU file). If you installed the leaked updates from WZor a few weeks back, then you are running the same thing that the general public will receive on April 8th.

    The new ISOs that are being made available through MSDN are the original Windows 8.1 images from Microsoft that include Update 1.

    Afaik you'll need updated LP (language pack) for Update 1, which isn't published so far.

    i've updated win 8.1 (x64) enterprise, with the latest iso
    en_windows_8.1_enterprise_with_update_x64_dvd_4065178
    Now BuildLabEx shows me
    9600.17031.amd64fre.winblue_gdr.140221-1952 .
    after update naturally i've lost language,
    strange i've lost activation of window and office 2013.
    Now i've re-added language pack, updated os, and
    reactivated window and office 2013 both with CODYQX4's tool
    sweetly

    You did an upgrade via ISO instead of using the update package? That would afaik explain Enterprise being deactivated :g:.

    For your info:
    This is quoted from the Windows Springboard Series Blog, Posted on: Apr 02, 2014 by Ben Hunter

    "[h=4]· Updating from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1[/h]If you are currently updating computers from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 by leveraging the automated upgrade process (“setup.exe /auto:upgrade”) available in volume license versions of Windows 8.1 (Pro and Enterprise), you can swap out the current Windows 8.1 installation files that you are using (which includes the INSTALL.WIM, SETUP.EXE, and all other related setup files from the Windows 8.1 media) and replace it with the new files from the updated Windows 8.1 ISO available from the Volume License Service Center on April 14th. That saves you the trouble of installing the new updates separately."

    I had been running 8.1 Pro with the leaked update installed. Had not received any windows updates since installing it. Decided to upgrade to the recent MSDN updated iso. Would not take my retail key - had to use the generic install key. No issues encountered. Activation was lost. Replaced activation using the toolkit - no problem.

    None of that was a surprise (except maybe not taking the retail key to install). What did surprise me was having 6 important updates when I checked Windows Update afterward.

    Don't know if that is in any way meaningful, just thought I would share my experience.

    Can you post the KB numbers of those updates? I integrated the MSDN MSU's to my spanish ISO and there were no updates, except two for .NET 3.5 which I always enable via DISM.
