>The installation over 8 will ask you if you wish to wipe it out completely and offering you the chance to keep your user profile settings. I did that in 5 minutes and it worked on the first try. The user settings have been preserved. More than that, if you had a VHD, that will be preserved as well.
But how did you get the 8.1 upgrade download? When I go to MS Store I don't see it.
