Hello, this is my first post, so dont mind me if I do anything wrong I restarted my laptop, and it installed a new update. This update causes games to crash, and I dont really like Windows 8.1. Can anyone help me resetting to Windows 8? (There was no DVD or USB-stick in te package and I dont have a copy of Win8/Win8.1 yet) ~FlocKster
In Windows Update at bottom left you'll find 'Installed Updates', it should show the lately installed Updates and the option to uninstall them.
Hmm, so far i thought the Udate from 8 to 8.1 is only offered via Windows Store. The Update 1 for 8.1 is offered normally via WU.
Well, I dowloaded 8.1 from the Windows Store manually, and it installed Update KB 291355 and 295977 automatically.
OK that makes some sense, seems you need to decide between 8 and 8.1 . For Win 8.1 Update 1 became mandatory.
I would choose Win 8. Of course I would reinstall XP if support wasn´t canceled. @fkar: Sorry for that typo
I googled it, pretty easy, but I can´t without a bootable CD/DVD or USB-Stick. Guess I gotta wait for Bill to release an uninstall-tool... Anyway, thanks for responding so quick!
@Flockster - a suggestion - In the future keep a regular backup/imaging schedule for your OS. This allows you to recover the OS the way you want it should something make it not the way you want it. I use Acronis True Image Home and back up OS twice a week - I'm never more than 1 recovery away from happiness.
