ASCII.jp RTM version Windows 8.1 was installed a little earlier
Windows 8.The development of 1 has already been distributed for the RTM version for the completed manufacturer.
Windows 8, which will be released to the public on October 18.1.This time, I installed the RTM version a little earlier
Windows 8.1 was the final edition (RTM: RELEASE TO Manufacturing) on August 27, and saw the completion.General distribution started on October 18, but distribution on MSDN and Technet started in mid -September.
This time, I will actually install this first distributed RTM version.Microsoft has the expression "upgrade" Windows 8 (8).0) to 8.I use it to express the transition to 1, but there are actually three upgrades.
One is the current Windows 8 environment, and the application installed by the user remains.The other is that only the user file remains, and the application installed by the user disappears.The last one is nothing left ... so -called clean installation.
Well, already 8.You may have tried the preview version of 1.If you want to leave only user files by overwriting installation, 8.It is possible to install the RTM version from the top of the first preview version, but it seems that it is not Windows 8 to upgrade the settings and users installed.
Either way, 8.Once you have put a preview version, you will need to reinstall your application.If you are waiting for general distribution, return to Windows 8 now, re -install the application first, and the official version of Windows 8.It may be easier to put 1 upgrade.
Windows 8.If you want to return to Windows 8 after installing 1, use the recovery image at the time of shipment in the recovery partition.However, it is possible if you have created a recovery image file on your own, or a recovery image file.Use "PC setting" → "maintenance and management" → "Recovery" and "Remove everything and reinstall Windows"
8.It is easy to use the Windows recovery image to return from the first preview to the original Windows 8.However, the only thing that can be returned is only if the recovery image of Windows 8 is stored, but 8.1 The preview version does not overwrite the recovery image stored in another partition, except for the Windows RT version, so return the PC to the initial state → "Maintenance and management" → "Recovery" re -re -Windows.If you install it, it is possible to return to the factory shipment.However, if you install Windows 8 on your own HDD on a self -made machine, etc., you will not be able to return this method because the recovery image is not created (it is necessary for users to make it manually).
Windows 8.There are several conditions for upgrading to 1
Also, with the installed app, etc., 8.There are several conditions for installing 1 to install 1.
One is 8 that is running as mentioned above..It is not a preview version of 1, but the official Windows 8 version.The other is the same language as the currently installed Windows, and in the end, there are three: updating from the operating Windows (updating cannot be selected by booting from USB memory, etc.).。
This time, due to the equipment, the English version of Windows 8, "Japanese version Windows 8.1 "Overwrite installation and English version Windows 8.After the update with 1, we will try to make Japanese translation by the language kit distributed on MSDN and Technet.
In addition, even if you take over the environment, such as a model that contains Windows 8 from the beginning of the manufacturer, especially mobile models such as a notebook or tablet, may cause problems such as a device driver even if you take over the environment.
For this reason, it is safer to wait until the official update appears.Of course, if you get the latest driver and solve it, you may be able to manage it, but there is a possibility that you will not be able to respond unless you receive a file from the manufacturer.If you install such a machine, please do it at your own risk.
