First of all, it needs to be clear that Windows 8.1 Update:
· is marked as "Important & ndash; Security Update" in Windows Update because it includes two new security fixes KB2922229 and KB2936068 (and all previous cumulative updates)
· KB2919442 is a prerequisite for the Windows 8.1 Update update. KB2919442 should be installed before attempting to install KB2919355 (already pushed in March)
· update package size Between 300MB and 700MB, depending on the system version
· will not receive the system update push after the update to Windows 8.1 Update
· does not include the start menu – although Microsoft shows on Build 2014 A new start menu and windowed Windows Store application, which will wait for future updates
· Can't update directly from Windows 8, you need to go to the app store to update to Windows 8.1, then update Windows 8.1 Update
· How to tell if you are already using Windows 8.1 Update? The easiest way is to open the start screen and have &ldqu next to the avatar in the upper right corner. o; power and search button & rdquo; is Win8.1 Update (devices with less than 8.5-inch screen without power button).
In terms of experience, the Windows 8.1 Update update will modify the system's default behavior:
These are the default settings, but you can do this in: Desktop Taskbar > Right-click menu <;Properties>>“Navigation ”tag card, settings:
· Jump to desktop when logging in or off all applications
· Display application view directly instead of start screen
Windows 8.1 Update start screen default tile
>· Windows 8.1 Update start screen will add 4 tiles by default: this computer, computer settings, documents, pictures
· Windows RT 8.1 Update start screen will only add 1 tile: computer settings
· This is only for the first use of the start screen, users who have set the start screen will not add these tiles
Note: Win8.1 Update 1 start screen also provides a traditional style of the right-click menu (fixed, uninstalled, Change size, turn off dynamic tile notifications, etc.). Therefore, the way of multi-selection of the magnetic strip also changes – mouse and keyboard: Ctrl and hold, left mouse button to multi-select; touch: long press.

· the Windows Store app has a minimize button at the top
· In the modern environment, the mouse stays at the bottom of the screen to display the desktop taskbar
