I have run into a quagmire.
Presently, I have installed win 8.1 preview into an old Dell Inspiron laptop which used to run Vista.
I like the preview so much that I am ready to install the Final Release of 8.1 when it becomes available.
The thing is, I do not have a valid upgrade path to install...

At the moment I have the win 8.1 preview installed in my old Dell laptop which used to run Vista.
It was a clean install and I never had the Windows 8 RT ( I could have it for $39.99, but I declined to do so.)
Question :
When the final release of Win 8.1 is available for public, do I have to...

With the final release approaching in a few days, I'm wondering if it's a good idea to remove the old unanswered questions about the beta versions? Some of those problems were probably fixed or it's just time to move on. When we sort for questions without replies / solutions most are several...
Yeah, I currently have Windows 7 Build 7600, so is there any difference between this one and the final released version of Windows 7. I know this one expires early next year, but other than that is there a difference?

I just restarted my computer, but nothing changed.
I don't...
Well, my father have a notebook and i want to install the Build 7600.. But i have 2 questions:
First one: Can I upgrade Windows Vista Home Basic to Windows 7 Ultimate Build 7600?
Second question: There's an activation that activates that build for ever? As is was the Retail or Final one...
