What can I
do with the Windows 8.1 installer package?
This is a full copy of Windows 8.1, which means you can use
it to install on new hardware, or you can upgrade an existing Windows 7 or
Windows 8 installation. If you upgrade from Windows 8, you can keep all your
apps (including desktop programs) and files. If you boot from a USB flash drive
or DVD to start the install, you must do a clean install. If an existing copy
of Windows is on the target drive when you do that install, it gets moved to a
new Windows.old folder.
The good news is that any updates released in October will
apply to this edition, so you will not need to uninstall it when GA arrives.
Do I need a
product key?
Yes, you do. MSDN subscribers get five product keys for Core
and Pro, respectively. TechNet subscribers get three keys for each edition.
Each key can be used for multiple online activations.
Can I
upgrade from the Windows 8 Preview?
This is not a supported upgrade path. If you run the setup
program from a machine running the Windows 8.1 Preview, you will see only the
option to keep your files. You must reinstall Windows 8 or Windows 7 to enable
the option to upgrade apps, files, and settings.
Do I need
to create bootable installation media to upgrade Windows 8?
No. Windows 8 has the built-in capacity to mount ISO files,
which is the format that the Windows 8.1 upgrade file comes in. After
downloading that file, double-click it to open the installer as a virtual DVD
in File Explorer. Then click Setup to begin the upgrade.
