Dell :: Unable To Download Windows 8.1 Update From MS Store?

Oct 22, 2013

I've tried for several days after several reboots, etc.  I am running a Dell OEM version of Windows 8 on an Optiplex.  It just sits at "Downloading" and when I hover over it it says "0% complete".  Apparently I can't use the ISO because I need a key which the OEM version does not have. how I can get this thing to update?

Download Windows 8.1 Update From Another Computer

Jan 27, 2014

I want to upgrade a computer from Windows 8 to 8.1 but I have a very low download allocation (2GB/month) at that computer. I would like to download the upgrade on another computer (a Mac) that has a much higher download allowance and then transfer that to the computer I need to update. Is this at all possible?

Is it possible to download win8 update packages to install from USB?

I have many machines all trying to update at the same time over wifi and takes hours just for the check to finish and many many hours for the updates... I figured if I could download a batch to USB, copy to few USB sticks then pop them on?

Dell :: XPS 8700 - Unable To Download Windows 8.1 Upgrade From MS Store

Jul 9, 2014

I have a new XPS8700.  I have been unable to download the Windows 8.1 upgrade from the MS Store. My first problem was a lack of Windows updates, which I did, and now I can see the 8.1 upgrade in the store. I can also download updates to other aps.

My remaining problem is a continual notice every time I hit download that I need to first log into an account with admin access.  Best I can tell, this and other forums have shown me how to add Admin capability with the Command prompt.  I even created a second account and did the same thing.  Within the User Summary screen within control panel, both Users show "administrator".  Yet I still cannot get access

I have tried "net user administrator /active:yes" as well as tried same with swapping my name for administrator

The actual "administrator" user cannot do anything within the App Store.  That appears to be what is supposed to happen.

I'm another user with the same situation, it did not work, the direct download stated, does not work with this system.

Setup Installation :: How To Download Windows 8.1 Update 1 Official ISO File

Jul 25, 2014

I have been reading about tricks for downloading Windows 8.1 ISOs to perform clean installs on OEM machines.

I also happen now to be in the same situation since the manufacturer did not package any media with the OS.

But my question now is:

- How to get Windows 8.1 with Update 1 already included in ISO from an official source like MSDN?

Additional doubts:

- In this tutorial, does the process already gives you the latest Windows 8.1 ISO with Update 1 slipstreamed?

Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 ISO - Download or Create

- If this ISO can be get with torrents, what would be the source to check for file integrity and SHA from MSDN ?

- Can Windows 8.1 Update 1 ISO be installed with a regular 8.1 Pro product key?

Updates :: Share Windows Update Download Files Between Two Machines?

Sep 15, 2014

If you have, say, two laptops both running Windows 8.1, and it gets to the monthly Microsoft update Tuesday it seems crazy to have both machines independently downloading the same set of updates totalling around 300MB as was the case yesterday. Is it possible for one machine to run the updates, and then share the download files with another machine - whether via the local network (LAN) or via a usbkey or other media?

Certainly on my linux machines I have one machine run udpates and I then share the update package cache with all other machines saving considerable bandwidth on my home broadband connection. It would make a lot of sense to be able to do the same for Windows machines running the same version of Windows. The saving would increase even more if there was more than two machines in the same household such as if all members of the same family had their own machine.

Unable To Download Dell Manuals?

Dec 13, 2013

I have had a friend send me the manual for my Dell xps 8300 desktop because I was unable to download it. I saved it. For me it just says page cannot be viewed. I tried 3 browsers.I am having the same trouble with my Dell Inspiron, N5010, R15.

I get the same error message. I am more concerned about WHY I cannot download when others can.I have looked over the Win firewall for Win 8.1 but can't see any issue.I have a Comcast router set to normal security.

Could my download feature be corrupted?I ran sfc + it is ok and Chkdsk says it does not need running. I have emptied caches etc.I had driver issues recently and a forum tech told me to run Driver Booster. Everything except the inability to download this Inspiron manual has worked much better.

Updates :: Settings To Only Download New Update Info?

Dec 3, 2013

I have check for updates set to Never. Occasionally I manually check for updates. Thing is, after 10 minutes I get the same 40 important and 2 optional update descriptions. Is there some way to set the high water mark so that I only get new notices without installing any updates? It's not exactly intuitive.

Unable To Boot Windows 8.1- Possible Failure During Update

Sep 15, 2014

I have been running my desktop system under WIndows 8.1 since release, and I started having a problem the other day.

The system seems to have hung up completely, so I powered it down (it is usually up 24 x 7 since I use it as a DVR along with my computer usage).

It seemed to be ok when it powered up, but then a bit later it asked to reboot to finish installing updates.

It has not booted since.

During reboot, it displays the Windows logo and the spinning dots for a few seconds, and then the screen blanks, and my monitor loses signal. I have left it for quite a while and it doesn't come back. After some time, it goes into sleep mode (slowly flashing power indicator), so something is going on at some level. I have powered off and back on, and removed the power cord for a minute to see if anything different happened... it doesn't.

I have tried pressing F8 and Shift-F8 during reboots to try to get to safe mode, but so far no good. Last night, I used my laptop and seem to be able to access shares, but unfortunately it appears that the things I want/need most are not shared.

The bad part is that I haven't been able to locate my recovery disc, but I will continue to look.

I bought the system with Windows 7 right before 8.0 was released, and When 8.0 came out, I got the cheap upgrade and before loading it, installed an SSD for my C: Drive, and kept the existing HDD for my D: Everything has been running well until this incident.

Setup Installation :: Unable To Update To Windows 8.1

Jul 10, 2014

I am having a hard time upgrading from windows 8 to 8.1, I have tried installing through the store, installing using the files downloaded by the store (copied them before they were deleted) and they all give me an error. The errors are as follows:

installer using key: This key does not work with this version of windows 8 (using Professional 64-bit, tried 8 and 8.1 key but neither work).

Installer using ei.cfg file: Setup failed to authenticate the product key (or similar, it is set to professional so this should not be an issue).

Store: just says setup failed.

The first time I tried updating, the installer froze and did not complete so I had to re-start, could this have something to do with the issue I am experiencing? My specs are as follows:

Windows 8 Professional 64-bit
2TB HDD
16GB DDR3 RAM
Nvidia Geforce GT545 with 3GB VRAM
Realtek AC97 onboard audio
Intel core I7 3.2ghz quad-core multi-thread processor

Apps / Software :: Unable To Download New Apps Or Run Existing Ones?

Sep 15, 2014

I can only run apps when NOT connected to the internet. Only pre installed apps becauce I can't download new ones. When connected to the internet I can use a browser, use email and go to the apps store. If I try to run any apps they try to open up and then I get the message "Can't log into Xbox" or something like that. I DON'T HAVE AN XBOX. Why do microsoft assume everyone owns all of their products. I have uninstalled everything mention of Xbox but this get the same problem.

I tried to download an app - three days later it was still trying. I just get a blank square on the home screen with some dots scrolling along the bottom of the box. I have tried various apps and nothing ever downloads.

Setup Installation :: Can't Update To Windows 8.1 - Unable To Connect To Store

Oct 23, 2013

I have a fairly new PC running Windows 8 and I can't seem to upgrade to Windows 8.1--There are a bunch of issues-

1. Can't connect to the Windows Store--tried everything here save the refresh, which I do NOT want to do.
2. Downloaded the 8.1 ISO and burned it to a disc--get the error message that 8.1 could not be installed--0x101-0x20017 error--tried installing with a clean boot, turned off antivirus suite, etc
3.sfc /scannow does not work.

So currently I'd like to forget about the store for the moment and continue updating from the downloaded ISO. I really do not wish to restore the computer and I have a lot of software I'd need to reinstall and this would take a long time.

Apps / Software :: Unable To Sign In Or Update Anything Within Windows Store

Feb 4, 2014

I am able to login to my computer using my Microsoft account but if I try logging into the Windows Store, installing any new apps or updating any of them I get random error codes that I have Googled and they don't lead to anything. I thought it might be related to security software (I use Norton Internet Security) so I tried disabling it and it didn't do anything. I have no viruses or any other kind of malware so why this is happening. I have updated my laptop to Windows 8.1 if that makes any difference.

Updates :: Unable To Manage Windows Update Settings As Administrator

Mar 26, 2014

I cannot change the Windows update settings even though I am the administrator. It is grayed out in the snapshot above. I am the only user. I created a local account as well. I need to change the update settings to download updates automatically but I am stuck on "check for updates but let me choose..".

I need to change the setting in order to get internet access at my work using my home computer. The IT person at work recommended that I install Windows 8.1 to see if it would correct the problem, but the new installation did not work. This second screenshot shows that I am an administrator,I think.

Unable To Project To Second Screen After 8.1 Update

Three days ago I updated my laptop to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8. After doing so my laptop began to have the black screen issue which I resolved by following the steps from this page:

Now I am unable to project to a second screen. My set up is two monitors connected to my laptop (One from a directly connected HDMI cable and the other by an HDMI cable, connected to a utility bar, connected to my laptop by usb). I have already updated my graphics driver to the latest edition and still get the message "Your PC can't project to another screen. Try reinstalling the driver or using a different video card."
