DISCUSSION: Windows 8.1 Spring 2014 Update RTM

Well then, maybe MS would follow the same mechanism and release RTM+Update1 like in the case of RTM+SP.

Guess @EFA11's inbox is now flooded with "link requests", hope he would do that, and then we'll know.

 

This is what it contains.

I can start the upload but need to get to work. I have an idea though.

 

Hashes identical to leaked MSUs for KB2919355. Reason for extra "size" looks to be separate folders for Server MSU files.

 

great no need upload, can just up the server ones then?

 

They are no different. Looks like they just separated them out.

 

OK, was my guessing, would explain the size.

 

The server MSUs listed above have the exact same hashes as the x64 Windows 8.1 MSUs. Would guess they just named them differently to help OEMs identify?

Thanks for publishing that - I am sure there will be plenty of interest.

 

So what's new ?

 

Nothing. It looks as though the MSU files going to OEMs are identical to those leaked by WZOR and through WU.

 

Can I get some cliff notes on this thread?

I'd like to experience this "update" so I am downloading something posted by bav0- Windows8.1.1_RTM_MSU_x64_BAV0.rar. Are these (6?) final? Ive seen speak of having to install them in a specific order. Must I install all current WU provided updates and then install these that I am downloading?

 

The 6 updates are most likely final, you don't need to install any other updates before installing the ones in the download and the install order is included in the Read Me.txt file in the download.

 

big, bada, boom.

Has anyone summarized the useful changes these updates make to 8.1?? Understand wanting to get them for testing but will they provide any worthy changes?

Thanks much, BAVO! Bravo!

It does look like the Metro interface is getting more useful but I would personally prefer it to simply disappear.

best link? have you checked the first post in this thread?
The 17031 build update is all the same. One file will be completely identical to any other one you download.
Check your hashes with hashtab or something to verify.
