How to create a recovery image using the key of Windows 8?

Confusion of title: original backup

I bought Windows 8 online... downloaded and installed.

When Windows Update 8.1 is available, the Microsoft support team made this update remotely... as I was part of the people having problems.

I would like to make a recovery disk, but I thought the key for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 will be different.

Do I have to re - install Win8 and then perform the update 8.1 in case of failure of the system because of the issue?

Can I make a picture of the current installation to reinstall?

Hello Terry,

Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Community.

I understand that you have installed Windows 8 and then upgraded to level to Windows 8.1 through an update.

Windows 8 key can be used for the 8.1 Windows as well.

  • How to create an ISO image of the system, windows 7 pro 64-bit disc?

    my laptop (hand me down) is prone to temper tantrums and I have just recently recovered my OS (windows7 pro 64 - bit SP1) OEM Vista - win7 HP x 64-Win7 Ultimate x 64 - back to HmPrem - and now my current installation. Beware parents unwittingly give you their headaches, that is to say: computers without the product keys and scratcthed inst DSK. With the history of this machine, it would be prudent to take measures to protect my computer from that dreaded "Startup Repair cannot fix your computer automatically.

    So I have this sense of urgency to get a viable backup for my computer. So far, I have had experience notoriously bad restoration of backups of flash and CD - r discs, etc. Seriously, I don't want to buy an external hard drive and online storage simply scares me.

    Can someone help an old man get reliable directions to the road straight to create a secure environment before you create a system backup image?

    (a) I seriously don't want to buy an external hard drive.

    (b) to create a safe environment

    (If you insist on one) then you can't do b).

    To create an image, you have two options:

    • Use the tool to create native images (which creates a .vhd file, not a .iso file). It works but it is immature, lack of functionality and is capricious.
    • Use a third-party product. Some of them cost money.
  • How to create view with tabs using the screens?

    Hello friends,

    I am aware of the view by using Manager tabs. I want to create the view tab by using the display instead of Manager.

    What is someone is aware of this kind of stuff?

    Thank you

    Salvi Alexander

    and what made features screen offer Manager does not offer?
    I've set up a couple of tabs, but it would be difficult to do with several screens.

    the advantage of using managers, is that you have a single control bar. If you use multiple screens each would need an instance of the command bar, you have to take care that they all display the same status and management of the screen would be difficult.

  • How you automatically geotag of images using the card

    I use a 6 d to create a GPS log, but I want pictures to geolocate of other cameras.  According to the manual and help files it should be an automatic way to place a geotag in these images based on their timestamp.  Unfortunately, I can't "fourth" icon on the lower left corner of the tab image so I can click on it - see page 12 of the manual for version 1.4 (this icon has a PIN & + with AUTO below).

    I have had several conversations with Canon and seems utility of Canon card will not automatically geo - tag images, so I switched to geolocate.  It was a bit difficult to get in the right seat (must also be GPSBabel and exiftool and dcraw either fully functional).  I also wrote a small C program to automatically run GPSBabel to convert the log of Canon in .gpx format file and then run geolocate.  Everything works pretty smooth now and done card utility should do.

  • How to create a 2nd selection using the elliptical selection tool

    I try to create the outer edges darker IRIS with the elliptical selection tool. I am trying to elect the iris and then create another selection of the iris 2nd with the elliptical selection tool. This does not work for some reason any. I work from the examples and exercises in the book "Portrait Professional retouching TECHNIQUES for photographers using Photoshop" by Scott Kelby. But for some reason, the tool does not work and I'm going through the procedure of Scott Kelby said to do. After I have selective elliptical selection tool, I do a circular selection around the Iris then after I adjust the size of the selection, I go to the "Sélection" menu and choose "MAKE SELECTION" then, command - click a selection handle to help it adapt to the Iris; Then I press on and hold down the SHIFT key and select the other Iris. This allows you to create another selection on the 2nd Iris. This is the part that is not work - the creation of the second selection on the 2nd Iris.  can someone help me with this problem?

    Too bad I found that I had to have the selected squre which has been added to the chosen SELECTION. When I did that I could add to my selection

  • How to create a filter by using the function of transfer mathscript in labview

    Hi all

    I am currently designing a filter in labview using a Mathscript loop. The filter can be represented in the transfer function. I have attached the equation of transfer as well as its value function and the desire of graphic amplitude vs. frequency should I got to it. Also, here is the transfer function written in Matlab.

    B1 = tf ([57.5221845], [1 51,017077 205.1868]);
    B2 = tf ([1 0], [7.6991]);
    B3 = tf ([1 0], [14.32433403]);
    B4 = tf ([1 0], [137.6017]);

    F = B1 * ((1+B3)/((1+B2) *(1+B4)));

    Plot (F)

    I also change the encoding as Labview Mathscript does not support Matlab coding "tf" as function of transfer to "bilinear".

    I am facing problem to are:

    (1) cannot display the graph of the labvie filter.

    (2) cannot have sinewave as an entry in the filter.

    (3) the output can not be display in graphical form.

    We hope to have the earlier response of you guys. Thanks in advance

  • Cannot create a recovery image

    Hello

    I just bought a HP Pavilion x 2, it has a 64 GB SSD.  I want to create a recovery image using the HP utility but when I try, it fails. I think it is because there is not enough space on the Windows partition to create the image.  I have a USB drive connected with 27 GB of free but looks like it will create the image on the C drive, before you copy it to the USB drive. I don't want to remove my recovery partition until I know that I have another copy and I can't find anything else to uninstall to get the 14 GB I need (have 12 GB free). I have only had the tablet a few days so did not have much here, have uninstalled everything I put here except for the updates of Windows that I did. I erased the wimy file temp user profile.

    Does anyone have ideas, what I can do?

    Thank you

  • How to create a recovery for TPT 2 disc

    Hello

    I really don't like the idea that my only restore options re' is on the same drive. So, if my drive goes down, I have no recovery option. I tried to create a recovery disk using the tools integrated in Windows, but it error. Other forums say that it can happen with OEMs. So, how can I create a recovery for my TPT2 disc? I have a USB DVD burner

    Hello

    Yep, those are the steps I've tried. Then it gives me an error code 80070057 #. I tried with two different CD/DVD burners to ensure it wasn't a burner problem.

    Now, since the announcement, I found another recovery option that seems to work:

    1. tap search in the bar of charms.

    2. Type "Recovery" and then press on to find settings

    3. click on 'create a disc of Recvovery '.

    4. follow the steps in this wizard.

    This creates a recovery USB disk. I still prefer to have a CD through the utility to backup WIndows 7 and recovery screen, but I hope this recovery USB will work as well.

    Thanks, sorry for my English.

    Satellite L650-170

    Hello

    As far as I know that it is no longer possible.
    If you have selected the language, you will need to use the language that was chosen originally.

    I not quite sure of this workaround, but check if this m:
    -create a recovery disk (using the software creator on the laptop recovery disk)
    -use the recovery disk to reinstall new OS
    -Check if it would be possible to change the language.
