Why is download Windows 8.1 so slow?

I update my Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows. Why is it so slow? I use a Wi - Fi network.

Hello

The download time depends on the speed of internet connection and the load on the download server.

It is a very large download (3.6 GB) so it may take some time to complete. Try a wired internet connection, it might be useful with the download speed.

Update to Windows 8.1 of Windows 8

I hope this helps. Let us know if you need help.

  • Why several download windows pop up when I download a PDF file or other file?

    Whenever I try to download a file (PDF, JPG, DOC), which was attached to an email (I use Outlook WebMail) the document will download very well HOWEVER eight (8!) or more to download windows pop up as if I tried to download that file eight times (or more).

    So I 'X' by each window after downloading a file. This is the same file on each pop-up window.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    You are unable to download any version of Windows.  You must contact the computer manufacturer that built your computer and install Windows 2000 on it to see if you can get a copy of their share.  I highly doubt you will be able to because Windows 2000 is entirely not taken in charge since 2005.

    Hello

    1. What is the security update article?

    If you have any third-party security software installed on your computer, I suggest you to disable the security software and then check if it helps.
