Ok so quick question. Will there be a new start menu (classic/metro hybrid)? I have been reading online about this new start menu yet I dont have it with WZOR's updates.
Possibly yes, but not anytime soon. It was shown at Build as pipeline developments... showing developers were they are heading...
Start menu... For what is it good? I confess I almost never used it in W7... "All programs" group - terrible mess, nothing can be found here, if you have 200-300 applications installed... "Recently run applications" - unusable, every single time you access it, there are another applications displayed... "Documents/Pictures/Music" folders - is really anyone, who uses these "libraries", for what reason? "Help and Support button" - OMG )
KB2939087 is re-released today (different files), but it's intended for System that didn't install KB2919355 KB2949621 is included in the new package KB2934018
To start an application quite fast....just hit start, type the first two or three characters of its name, it will be listed and click onto it..... The start menu,"All programs" group is a mess when you don't organize it....but a HDD will be also a mess when you don't organize it (create folders and subfolders etc.....)
I am happy, that you have responded, because this thread is SO LONG, so I didn't bothered to read ) those 1000 posts... ...I awaited to be knockouted by people, who did read it all. ) So actuall W8-1-1 Update is: 1_windows8.1-kb2919442-x64_f97d8290d9d75d96f163095c4cb05e1b9f6986e0.msu (offered last month) 2_windows8.1-kb2939087-x64_89d4949cd698c645c7a6e96a012eecab44d5c5e1.msu (discarded) 3_windows8.1-kb2919355-x64_e6f4da4d33564419065a7370865faacf9b40ff72.msu (main) 4_windows8.1-kb2932046-x64_6aee5fda6e2a6729d1fbae6eac08693acd70d985.msu 5_windows8.1-kb2937592-x64_4abc0a39c9e500c0fbe9c41282169c92315cafc2.msu 6_windows8.1-kb2938439-x64_3ed1574369e36b11f37af41aa3a875a115a3eac1.msu 7_windows8.1-kb2949621-v2-x64.msu (superceeded by kb2934018) 8_kb2934018 Is this so?
Well, "All programs", it is mostly two-level tree binded to uninstall programs. How can you manage it without damaging the uninstallation binding?"
These are the official instructions from MS on download site These KB's must be installed in the following order: (1) KB2919442 (2) KB2919355 (3) KB2932046 (4) KB2937592 (5) KB2938439 (6) KB2934018 KB2919442 is a prerequisite for Windows 8.1 Update and should be installed before attempting to install KB2919355
Hi I installed all updates in proper order but i am still showing old Windows 8.1 Build number, i dont think that this was installed properly. If i restart updates, i am getting message that they are already installed. Any ideas? Thanks
@abbodi1406 or anyone else familiar with all this... I know it's probably already posted in this thread but I can't find it. Can someone post the reg query command to check build number and what is correct (after installing the above)? TIA.
