Microsoft Windows 8.1

Microsoft Windows 8.1 Preview now available for download

         At its Build developers conference, Microsoft announced that it has made the preview version of Windows 8.1, the update to its Windows 8 desktop operating system, available to the public for download.As the word 'preview' suggests, this build is sort of a final beta and might contain some bugs so Microsoft recommends that you should only install it if you're comfortable with troubleshooting your PC. The company also warns that you might lose some functionality or encounter errors as the software is still in development stage. Also, the final version of Windows 8.1 could feature more changes.
       To download the new OS, you need to visit the Windows 8.1 Preview page and download a small program. It's worth pointing out you will not be able to 'uninstall' Windows 8.1 Preview and will need to perform a fresh install if you wish to go back to Windows 8.
        After executing the downloaded program, the PC will prompt you to restart and will give you an option to download the Windows 8.1 update from the Windows Store. You'll just need to follow the instructions to download and install the update.Microsoft also lists some devices that are not compatible with the Preview, yet.It says, "Some tablets and PCs running newer 32-bit Atom processors require updates to their graphics drivers before they can run the Windows 8.1 Preview. Those tablets and PCs include the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2, ASUS VivoTab TF810C, HP Envy X2, HP ElitePad 900, Samsung ATIV Smart PC, and Fujitsu ARROWS Tab. We are working closely with Intel and OEM partners to deliver updated drivers that will allow you to install the Windows 8.1 Preview as soon as possible."
          The Windows 8.1 update features a couple of new improvements including a new Start tip that offers Start menu like functionality, desktop wallpapers for Start screen, updated search, automatic app updates, new multitasking experience, a revamped Store, better PC settings and a new version of Internet Explorer, among other changes.
