after updating from 8.0 to 8.1, I (like many others) lost the refresh option. any way to get it back? windows 8.1 pro 32 bit
As of now, M$ haven't said anything clear about it, so your only option is to wait it out. In case ou want to do a refresh, you can do it using the media from which you installed 8. Alternately, you can download the Enterprise edition from the repository here and upgrade. Clean install will be free from such trouble.
