No offence taken. I was running leaked version on my VM, so naturally I've tried to update it, not my main system. Will try to update RTM as soon as I'll find some free time. Although I'm still wondering how @EFA11 managed to update leaked version. Thanks mate!
Regarding the update process. If we are running the basic English version, do we still have to boot into Audit mode to install update KB2919442 or do we even need to install this update? Can we update it just by running it norm?
Can anyone confirm if the Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller driver current windows 8.1 version is 6.3.9600.16459 has been up dated in the update or is still the old one? Wondering if any value at all in installing. Obviously a slow (very slow) meltdown that full screen appz are no good on a desktop and an x icon to close them is not worth an update if you do not use the store/appz/metro in the first place because you enjoy windows over fullscreen. Regards
Ok so I just reinstalled 8.1 Enterprise in VMWare, updated fully, activated with MTK, installed the smaller update Windows8.1-KB2919442-x64.msu, rebooted, installed the big update Windows8.1-KB2919355-x64.msu, rebooted, and this time it worked fine So yea, doesn't like to work with the leaked 8.1 update 1, but it works with 8.1 RTM
Hello guys i'm trying to install this update on my Desktop (windows 8.1 rtm fully updated) , i installed the smaller one fine and rebooted but the second one i couldn't :'( ,
try updating RTM fully..i know people have said you need all the updates installed..worked on mine doing this way See below for a small tutorial. Manual: Installing the Windows 8.1 Update 2014 MSU build 9600.16610.WINBLUE_S14.140201 to a your local Windows 8.1 RTM. 1. Install Windows 8.1 RTM any version! 2. Install one or more Windows 8.1 RTM languages 3. Install all of the previously-released updates for Windows 8.1? this includes: • Rollup A (KB2883200) • Rollup B (KB2884846) • November Rollup (KB2887595) • December Rollup (KB2903939) • January Rollup (KB2911106) Restart your PC. 4. Install Windows8.1-KB2919442-<architecture>.msu update, where <architecture> is x86, x64, by double-clicking on the file. This is required to install before you install the Windows 8.1 Update 2014 MSU update! Restart your PC. You must restart the PC to complete any pending update actions. 5. Install the Windows 8.1 Update MSU file, Windows8.1-KB2919355-<architecture>.msu(where <architecture> is x86, x64) to the by double-clicking on the file. The update will be applied for all available languages installed in the Windows 8.1. 6. Restart your PC. You must restart the PC to complete any pending update actions. Fine! 07|02|2014 see if this helps..another option would be to try download another RTM
thanks , but what they mean by this "2. Install one or more Windows 8.1 RTM languages" do i need to instal another UI lang- or what ?
This update works perfectly but has a few glitches like:- 1.Internet explorer won't start for some reason 2.The taskbar will disappear & reappear from the bottom of the screen if you click on the startbutton to go to the startscreen & then press the startbutton again & move the mouse away from the startbutton 3.Windows explorer freezes for sometime after every reboot & you won't be able to clik on any desktop icons but you will still be able to access the startscreen BTW:- There's no problem in using a MS account after installing this update right?? Is anyone using MS accounts after updating Windows 8.1??
I've tried on 2 PCs, one is 32bit and another one is 64bit, both did not reboot after installed the small update, no problem occurred.
I had the same results trying to update- Update 1 #16596, ended up doing a clean install & all updates of W8.1Pro RTM, GA. Testing in VMware 9
Windows 8.1 Pro N x64, fully updated & activated, after Windows8.1-KB2919355-x64.msu update & reboot windows becomes unstable, freezes, very high cpu usage.. Disabled antivirus (nod32) and all other programs/drivers on startup.. little more responsive but still very bad performance. KB2919355 uninstalled, everything working again . Updated one more time, same scenario Acer Aspire V5-573G
So I booted the VM up today and ended up doing a "refresh" from boot with the untouched leak and 2 MSU updates. It booted several times prior. I don't understand, could it have not finished installing until a "cold" boot happened? bit confused.
