FLUSTERED?
Would you be?
Moving to Windows 8.1 pro preview was not worth the effort; as the problem is Microsoft continually lie via their support staff; in that I went to system properties and updated my PRODUCT CODE on the day Windows 8.1 became LIVE; with a genuinne Amazon Windows 8 Pro key (from a sealed DVD Disc set), which changed the `Product I.D` in the System window, but the program reamins as PREVIEW edition and REFUSES to update to my new code and it will not let me buy media player or anything to update.
I have spent 200 hours putting all my software together on this new build PC (almost 2 months ago) on four hard drives and all my sites and games and documents and passwords and programs and UPDATES by the hundred, and Microsoft tell me to do this then tell me to do that and leave me finding out it doesn`t work, time after time after time after time; and subsequently they take over my PC and root around remotely and tell me I can update then tell me I cant and then make me wait days and then fail to call back when they say they will `with updated information` and/or "a way to fix it", but after a hundred hours of trying every which way (downloading DVD`s of w8.1 in differnet languages and burning them to disc and trying the re-install with "SAVE YOUR PROGRAMS AND DOCUMENTS OPTION", but all of which fail.
Basically its a garbage thing they do by Not putting a MESSAGE on the SYSTEM PROPERTIES "Change my Product Code" area with a "WARNING- DO NOT PUT IN A WINDOWS 8 PRO KEYCODE HERE".
I asked them to put that warning there; as it seems that I may have to wipe my hard drive/s and start from scratch.
Only another hundred hours work to do. but I will see when they ring back in two days (if they are not slithering with their words again).
Maybe it is to do with the fact that my Win8 Pro disc is Japanese (the wife) and the preview version is English; but they keep saying different things about that.
