Windows 8 Where to Download an Original Copy of Windows 8.1 for Clean Installation

[Martin Hickie]

Hi

Does anyone know where can i download a original copy of windows 8.1 as when i updated from windows 8, it looks a mess. All i want to do is do a clean copy of windows 8.1 not update it?

As it stands now...that's not possible. There is no ISO for download....legally.

But will Windows release a ISO of windows as i dont want to upgrade

 

[Jimbo22]

That remains to be seen...it's possible, but very doubtful.

ok but is it possible to do a clean install of windows 8.1 or do i have to upgrade from windows 8 fresh

No...not at this time. There are only 2 options to install 8.1 at the moment, 1 is to upgrade through the MS store or 2 buy the retail DVD. Option 2 it the only way to do a clean install.
