This question has been asked earler in this forum but a clear answer for the same is not yet available for the people who bought windows 8 pro upgrade
I purchased Windows 8 pro upgrade from Win 7 ($40 Win upgrade offer) also I got a free Windows Media Center Addon Pack key....
Currently Mys system is :
Windows 8 Pro with Media Center
After reading other questions i found that to install Windows 8.1 standalone i have 2 options
- Windows Store
- MSDN/Torrent iso download and use a defualt key to install
So i have with me :
I still have some questions :
- Is Upgrade Possible as standalone or Store is the Only way for me??
- Which OS to choose for upgrade from the ISO: Win 8.1 Pro or Win 8.1 Pro WMC ??
- IF i Choose ProWMC how will i activate it as i have Only Pro Key with Addon Pack key of WMC
- If I choose Pro will the addon pack key will work (although i never use it)
It would be really helpful if someone could guide me on this...
Thanks :)
Answer
You can upgrade to Windows 8.1 Pro and then use the WMC key after installation in the Add Features section.
The WMC keys you received last year work this year too.
