Raa Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 So if the MSDN/Technet ISOs don't upgrade from 7 to 8.1, is the only way to upgrade 7 -> 8.0 -> 8.1? (Without doing a clean install) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xendrome Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 So if the MSDN/Technet ISOs don't upgrade from 7 to 8.1, is the only way to upgrade 7 -> 8.0 -> 8.1? (Without doing a clean install) AFAIK Windows 7 to 8.1 is supported, you just have to reinstall your apps, so it's not a real upgrade. But it has nothing to do with specific ISO's being MSDN/Technet, it's just the way MS made it. Raa 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian S. Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 I was able to activate 8.1 with an 8.0 key on Oct. 18th. But shouldn't the activation servers always accept 8.0 keys? I mean, doesn't Windows also activate itself automatically when you upgrade through the Store? Yes it does. At least as far as I know, I only use 8 RT and 8 "regular" it should be same for pro.
