Q.
Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2014
Guess
what!! The last time I checked my computer—several days ago, “SkyDrive”
still showed up in File Explorer. When I checked it this morning, I found
that “OneDrive” appears there now. Also, Joe, the power options and
search icons now appear on my Start screen/tiles. So doesn’t that mean
that the 8.1 update HAS installed on my computer?
A.
Yes, but to double check, go to Control Panel, Windows update and check for
updates. The Windows 8.1 update was over 800 MB by itself.
Thank
you for last night’s presentations. I always learn something, but last
night I learned a lot. Thanks
for the comment, it makes my day. I really try hard.
Response;
Once
again, you have saved me!! As you suggested, I went to Control Panel,
Windows Update, and checked for updates. It said that my system was set
up to install updates automatically and that I had four optional updates
available to download and install, one of which was the
8.1 update. I installed all four. Now I have only one
optional update listed as available—Silverlight, which I do not plan to
install.
Thanks!!
