Update to Windows 8.1 after refresh

I've refreshed my pc recently, and it resets on windows 8.  I went to my control panel, set it to install 150 updates or if necessary so that I could install 8.1 and my update is stuck at 0% and 0kb downloaded. I checked my internet speed, which is very good, and having let stand for more than 30 minutes, I still haven't downloaded anything.

(1) what I'm doing wrong (if anything)

(2) is there a way I can download such things more quickly that manually restart my computer 150 times. (I have something else to do :))

Hello Geoffrey.

Please keep us updated.

  • Where did you download the driver from?

I suggest you try installing the driver in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows.

Right click on the driver, and then click Properties

Click on the compatibility tab

Click to check the option run this program in compatibility mode for and select the operating system as Windows 8

Click OK and restart the computer to check if it works.

Let us know the result, we will be happy to help you further.

    Bernd, these rights are not necessary to the reader XI. Unless the file has been secured, then it should be savable.

    I recommend that upgrade you to the latest version of the XI player that is available and if this does not work, try to run a repair installation (or upgrade to DC).

    The restore worked perfectly, but it set the return system 7 months and now I can't get Windows updates.

  • updates to Windows 8 missing after restoring the backup

    After the restoration of a drive under windows 8 from one backup windows, all my updates disappeared and updates history

    and white poster installed updates. Fix update being used, but no use.

    Are updates installed without the package leaflet or they lack and how does it work

    using the backup disk image?

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    Although this type of backup includes your personal files, we recommend that you back up your files regularly using Windows backup so that you can restore files and folders according to individual needs. When you configure a scheduled backup, you can choose if you want to include a system image. This system image only includes the drives required for Windows to run. You can manually create a system image if you want to include additional data drives.

    Important: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    Thank you.

  • Specific update for Windows on Windows 7 disables the internet connection in Internet Explorer

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. 10/14/2010 my computer installed something around 18 updates to Windows. Immediately after the restart, I couldn't get an internet connection on Internet Explorer. My computer tells me I have 90% Wi - Fi, but I get nothing on Internet Explorer. I restored my computer to until I installed updates, and immediately after the restart of the internet worked well. I decided then to individually install each update of Windows one by one and found a specific update that causes this problem on my computer. It's "Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 x 64-based Systems (KB2360131). I am able to install all the updates, only this specific one stop my internet to view Web pages.
    On a side note, I have another computer with Vista, and this computer shows no problem after installing all updates. I don't want to change my settings to manually install updates, I love that they install automatically, but that just doesn't work if this particular day keep install and maintain close my internet. Any suggestions as to why it continues to be?

    [I turned first on my new computer on 30 August.] I tried to activate [the 60 days Norton free trial] in the first week or two, so maybe between 7 September - 14 September... not [uninstall before I installed MSE] however.

    You must have activated the free trial immediately (i.e., August 30), not a week or two later. In addition, you should have uninstalled Norton free trial AND download / run the Norton Removal Tool BEFORE you installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

    I suspect that you see the effects of a hijackware infection. Chances are that your computer is already infected at the time wherever you tried to activate the free trial of Norton. See...

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows. Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) will NOT fix it!

    NOTE: If your computer came with a set of disks, there is a hidden partition restore (not to be confused with the restoration of the system) you would use to do the clean install (AKA a "destructive recovery").

    After the new installation, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" once again in order to take care of EVERYTHING on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) AND BEFORE to plug in a flash, SD card, or any other external drive to the computer otherwise:

    I use a newer computer that already had Windows 7 pre-installed.  After the last update my monitor started flashing.  It didn't happen in Mode safe and I could not diagnose any systemic changes that can occur.  He also doesn't seem to be a problem with the refresh rate.

    I ended up coming back to a restore point from before the update.  The problem occurred after the following updates have been installed: KB2719857, KB2735855, KB2736233 and KB2741355.  Someone knows that could have caused the problem, and if so do I really need?

    All updates have been classified as '' Important '' that's why I didn't question them.

    However, it seems that my monitor was kaput.  It happened to be a coincidence that he begins to not just after a Windows update.

    I thank everyone good help.  I'll keep updating in mind suggestions, in case something strange happens in the future.

  • Problems after updating to Windows 8

    I had some problems with my new laptop so I decided to try the «Refresh your PC» function Doing so brought on a slew of new problems which I had no chance to solve on my own. I hope someone knows what to do with this mess.

    After "refreshing" to my PC, my laptop wouldn't let me:
    Install anything (downloads are OK, though)
    Programs open (with the exception of Internet Explorer)
    Applications open
    Open C: /.
    Open the laptop settings
    Solve problems ("an error has occurred during troubleshooting.")

    It became obvious to me that the majority of these problems were because the updating of Windows me rid of my administrative privileges.

    I tried to solve this problem with every idea that I had and every suggestion I could find online. The problem is that my phone won't allow me to do anything to capture administrative privileges.

    Here are the solutions I tried:
    'Change the Type of account' in the user accounts: parameters show that I am already administrator.  The 'Standard' option is greyed out. Nothing to do here.

    Using a command prompt: everything I try, I get the "Network Error" result... "Windows cannot access to ' if I get" net user administrator / Active: Yes "I received the reply"the system 5 error has occurred. Access is denied. "I can only assume this error occurs because I'm not an administrator. If I try to do "sfc/scannow" it says "You must be an administrator." However it won't let me run cmd as administrator.

    Exchange User Account Control: the bar is set on "notify me only when...". ». I can drag down to "Never notify", but when I try to click on 'OK' will not just pass by. I could click OK all day and nothing will happen. No error message.
    Create a new user: hit this button head to PC settings, which does not, as previously stated.
    Clean boot: Msconfig will not open, I get the error message "network error". Windows cannot access.
    Switch to the Microsoft account: 'Users' directs 'PC settings", which is an application that does not open.
    CHKDSK: whatever it is, I have no idea, but it does not open.

    If I try to "Run as Administrator" on any program, it simply doesn't. No error message.

    I reached the end of my rope after trying several solutions more that hasn't worked and tried to do a system restore. System Restore does not open. I get the error message "System Restore could not start." I would try to solve the problems, but as I said troubleshooting will not, work almost everything also, runs to the PC settings application, which does not open.

    None of these problems existed before I did the update of Windows, so I can only assume what caused their - which is a little disconcerting.

    Any ideas on what to do?

    I had this problem after that refreshing of my pc, if yours is the same (if it could even be your best solution) you will need to make a new account

    Windows + x

    go to "Control Panel".

    go to "user accounts and family safety."

    Press 'user account '.

    Press 'manage other accounts '.

    In light blue shades near the bottom, it says "add a new user".

    Follow all instructions after that to make your new account

    Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. If all else fails, it's the only way I know how to deal with it
