Unchanged to Windows 8.1 - WHY?

Microsoft is offering to upgrade from windows 8 to windows 8.1 at free of charge. However, the currently available figures, there are many more Windows 8 system remain unchanged. The reasons can be found here.

We can't say it as Microsoft failure. Windows 8 was released on October 7 last year. In coming months, Windows 8.1 update 1 is going to release as update of Windows 8.

As of now, 6.83% are using Windows 8. 4.3% are using Windows 8.1.  We cannot expect Windows 8 will be useless, with the launch of Windows 8.1. It is surprising that Windows 8.1 users are less in number than Windows 8 users. Because Windows 8 is found with a lot of incorrect codes, still the customers has not changed to new.

Windows Store - Windows Update

Before this release, the windows is happened through 'Windows Update'. But the update is happening through Windows Store in windows 8.1. Earlier, system updates automatically, when it is connected with internet.

However, Windows 8.1 is not given in this way. it is given as a part of Windows store. Need to download it separately and install it as other programs.


Need Microsoft Account

Windows 8 prompts ask you to install through local user account or Microsoft account. Most of the users will use local user account to get it installed. But, windows 8.1 insists user to go through Microsoft account to get Windows 8.1 update files.
