    Still error code 80072EFE is displayed. There's the same problem in Server 2012, too.

    This is for Windows 8.1, not for Windows 8.

    KB2937636 can make Windows 8 and Server 2012 be able to update.

    hello coleo, well at that time if i remember well when i tried to do this same operation M$FT sent a notice stating that this version would NOT have any more updates this way i downloaded the ISO from here the MDL i still remember because it was when i joined our beloved MDL, but if you still use good luck then buddy :D:p
    EDIT: I also use W8.1 Embedded Industry Enterprise at least here for me is the best OS NO issues, stable and modified with MSMG Toolkit V8.8...
