>>The fist step in the page you posted is to go to the Windows Store and get the update to Windows 8.1 there. But when I click (from the new Toshiba Windows 8) on Store tile/button, I see no Microsoft Store. This was the first question in this thread that I asked. Thank you.

>I'd be inclined to try Windows Update. Dunno about Win8 but in Server 2012 it's in Control Panel: Metro...Control Panel...type "upd" in the search box should get you there.
I will see how to find Control Panel in Windows 8. Thank you.
