My wife has an HP laptop that came with 8.0. She has been putting off going to 8.1 because she heard of folks losing their configuration settings when doing the upgrade.
I really haven't been keeping up with all of the W8/W8.1 hoopla, as I am fat, dumb, and happy running my rock-solid W7 configuration on my machine.
Anyway - here is how her machine is configured. Windows 8 was originally set up using a Microsoft account, but her account on the the machine is not tied to the Microsoft account. There are three accounts on the machine - the Microsoft account (only used to register the original set-up), her account, and an account for our grand-daughter.
Is there any danger in her losing her "stuff" as she calls it if she lets it finally do the upgrade to 8.1?
Any tips of pointers on doing the update?
If she chickens out, I will attempt to tackle it this weekend - I just don't want to be the one responsible for her losing her "stuff"! :p
Thanks in advance.
