My moan of the day is Windows 8 - Mrs A's work PC has the operating system of choice in Hades installed, and now it won't open any of the built in apps - no Store, SkyDrive etc. Nothing Metro based except Wordamont her fave game.

OK I think - lets go 8.1, maybe that will fix it ?

Available via the store.

Which doesn't open.

There is a method of getting an ISO of the update but that needs a product key.

And OEM installs no longer have that little sticker.

I sense a downgrade to Windows 7 coming on, and a busy evening ahead.
