Upgrade Windows enterprise 8 to 8.1

vlmem10 · Jul 27, 2015

Dear All,

Is it possible to upgrade windows 8 to 8.1 with the same activation key, or do I have to purchase a new key for 8.1?

Can some body help me upgrade my windows 8 (x64) enterprise into 8.1(i Have the iso file) that I do not need to enter a new activation key(let the windows 8 key activate windows 8.1).

If it is possible, step by step guide, please.

do you have a DVD writer? the easiest way way would be to write the ISO on a DVD and install it that way.

You should be able to upgrade for free from the win store. Thats what I did with my laptop and it activated by itself.

he can't do that with enterprise. MS disables the app store on the enterprise version for some reason

Well that sucks. You should still be able to get a win 8.1 download and use the same key right?

Dear All, thank you for your times,

I have the windows in bootable thumb drive, and installed it, it ask me to keep all files or nothing, I selected to keep it, but removes all installed programs, it do keep files and thing that are in download folder etc...

Now the problem start, My windows ask a new key. What can I do now, how do I have the genuine activated windows with the old key?

did you try entering your old key? if it doesn't work during the instal skip entering the key during install and after you get to the desktop go into system properties and try entering the key there

I tried with the OLD key, no success.
