    You install an .msu file by double-clicking on it, just like an .exe file.

    Hi Guys. I really need your help. The other day I found out that the updates got leaked through The Verge and they directly sent me to this site. I tried to download the files and install it the way it was said by another member but unfortunately I cant install KB2919355 (The main one) and I found out that I the user posted the order the wrong way so I tried to check if I can uninstall the update or restore my computer from before I installed the updates but sadly I can't. I was only able to uninstall one update (KB2939087) but I cannot uninstall (KB2932046) since it was MISSING from my installed updates list but it says that it was sucessfully installed on my update history. I was also backreading the replies on this thread and I know that 442 is uninstallable. Any ideas on how I can still install KB2919355 without reinstalling the OS and deleting everything in my computer?

    Thanks!

    17019 provided a huge performance boost, 17025 did not provide anything extra over 17019 for me, but 17031 provided even more performance boosting over 17019/17025! When will this crazyness end? This is what Windows Vista (without Metro interface) should have been like - an actual upgrade from WindowsXP SP3.

    Update 1 is cumulative. I'm not sure why there is still so much confusion over this. If you install 8.1 right now and no additional updates, you can go ahead and install Update 1. After that, check Windows Updates and you will see that there is only 2-3 updates there since all previous updates are included in Update 1.

    Hi, I've followed all directions for patch order of the files. I did it for 3 x64 machines and it worked just fine. With the ARM patches on my Surface RT i did the same order. The version number shows as my x64 machines but there is no Shutdown Icon in metro UI :( all the other updates are working on the RT

    i installed pro x86 KMS activated by our beloved murphy78 using his windows 8.1 AIO jan edition plus i integrated spring updates by steven4554 x86 exe on a netbook and pro x64 KMS activated with x64 exe on a laptop

    and then alway using murphy78 AIO & steven4554 exe i installed enterprise x64 KMS activated on a tower with a 120 GB SSD

    without any problem

    but let's not forget this quote by FaiKee

    9600.17031 is not final release (yes, it's RTM), there would still be revisions before it hits MSDN and public Windows Update.

    Unfortunately for me 355 didn't want to install either yesterday or today. Does anyone has a working solution?
    In Update history it appears as failed.

    possible solutions

    lack of disk space, antivirus, previous unofficial update


    try a clean install

    see my post #1415

    WZor says it's RTM, but nobody knows for sure.

    All the update files installed fineand took about 30 minutes to install. After install I cleaned up WinSXS and made only a defrag. I feel Windows 8.1 is a little bit faster than usual, specially while starting up and shutting down.
