Hi Ruby,

We apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause.

-You get an error while trying to upgrade?

Before moving to Windows 8.1, I suggest you run Windows 8.1 upgrade assistant. Assistant upgrade is available for free download that scans your PC, desktop applications and devices to see if they will work with a later version of Windows and provides a free compatibility report.

If you have antivirus software, you may need to uninstall it before Windows 8.1. We recommend that you use the tools provided by the manufacturer of the software, if available. If you use encryption software, you may have to interrupt it before the upgrade.

Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable/uninstall your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Note: It is advisable to update your drivers to the latest revision before performing an upgrade, even if the upgrade wizard can't find no inconsistency.

For more information, see the links.
