Can I update or download Windows 8 on Surface RT?

On the Surface of RT, can I update or download Windows 8? Thank you!!!

No, you cannot, Windows RT is the only version of Windows that run on this device. You use Windows 8, you will need to buy an x 86 Windows 8 PC or wait as the Surface Pro.

    No. Microsoft is no longer manufactures or sells it. You * may * be able to find a

  • Where can I find and download Windows XP Pro to repair my "Windows Update by default places"?

    I'm unable to receive Microsoft updates. Fix Windows - it says: "the default Windows update locations have changed and must be repaired. For change to repair windows update locations for window by default parameters". So I ran ' sfc/scannow' in the command prompt, it says I have and missing or corrupt files and I need to insert my XP Professional cd-rom to correct. My XP Pro CD has been lost long ago. I have Internet Explorer 8 on my system. Here is some info on my computer system. Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Operating system
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional
    BootDevice = \Device\HarddiskVolume1
    BuildNumber = 2600
    BuildType = multiprocessor Free
    Caption = Microsoft Windows XP Professional
    CodeSet = 1252
    CountryCode = 1
    CreationClassName = Win32_OperatingSystem
    CSCreationClassName = Win32_ComputerSystem
    CSDVersion = Service Pack 3

    You can run checkdisk from a command prompt, but it would be better to burn Hiren's boot cd a copy or burn a bootable cd with the recovery on her console.

    Open the cmd prompt

    type chkdsk c: /r press on enter

    type y for Yes, press enter

    Type exit press on enter

    restart the pc

    It is a long process, percentages fluctuate, it is normal, let checkdisk finish

    If errors were found and corrected then run again until no error

    You can view the report in the event viewer.

    go to start, run, type eventvwr.msc and click ok

    in the event viewer go to the application directory by clicking on applications in the left pane

    in the right pane, scroll to Winlogon and double-click

    After this do the following please:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    Msinfo32

    Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here in your next reply.

    You can change the personal information.

  • How can I get the download window to open while downloading, instead of simply the little icon?

    It has been that the downloads window open up everything by downloading. Now all I get is the small arrow icon. It is too hard to see, I love the old-fashioned way. Is this possible?

    You can open the downloads tab by pressing Ctrl + J

    or you can use this addon:

  • How can I open the downloads window only? Or how can I close my browser and open the winodw downloads without an active download?

    I have about a year of downloads to sift through and organize. It means I have many open files that I move the files to the appropriate locations. The last thing I need is to have unnecessarily the browser open between all this mess.

    So... can I close my window of Firefox browser without the automatic reclosing also downloads window? Or better yet, is it possible to just open the downloads window and not the browser window?

    Again, I want to ONLY THE DOWNLOADS WINDOW open, not the browser window. I see that others have asked similar questions, but no one has ever proposed a solution.

    Avoid using the file > exit or the red X button. On the contrary: press Ctrl + j to display the downloads window, and then use Ctrl + w to close the last remaining tabs. The downloads window should remain open. A little luck?

    Yes, you can download Windows 10 from here

  • Can't update or reinstall Windows 8.0 - 8.1

    Well, I'm frustrated. My Acer Aspire P3 has corrupted Windows files. It cost me $55.00 for a tech get my computer to boot from a black screen. I'm unable to update or reinstall Windows make for "missing" files I also tried to install Windows 10 but I get an error code 80070005 It happens every time I tried. So, what are my options at this point? Is there anyway to "force" my computer back to factory settings?

    Thank you.

    In conclusion, I wouldn't need to take my Acer computer in the fix - it shop, in the first place. The protected recovery partition (refresh/re-install Windows) should be accessible through Windows without having to perform a recovery from USB when I first bought the computer or buy a fresh Acer today.

    Hi all

    First time here.  Relentlessly, I get 80070426 error when I try to download the latest urgent/updates Windows Update recommended.  This has happened for weeks.  I scanned with Malwarebytes & Avast... find scans nothing.  I saved and run mbam and avast to disc... still nothing is found.

    My windows preferences are defined on notify me when the urgency and recommended updates are available for download.  I passed this automatic download and prompt me to install updates to day... it doesn't matter... I still get the same error.  When I click search for updates, I get a MSG "windows update has encountered an unknown error."  When I go after "Get help with error," help Windows results pulled up to... "WindowsUpdate_Error_80070426" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"

    I even recorded my copy of windows again... I bought Sony computer with windows installed.

    I have the Sony support for these questions... but I really want to sit on the phone with someone who plays a standard solution... format that does not work... only for transfer to the expert support.

    I'd appreciate any help that can be provided to this forum.  Anyone? Ideas?

    Thank you
