Hi, I upgraded to windows 8.1 last year and everything was working fine. My computer crashed in March, and I had to start afresh.

Please help as I've been struggling for hours on end, day after day for the whole months of March and April and since I won't be getting support for windows 8, I would like to upgrade to windows 8.1. Your help will be appreicated!! Continue reading…

I want to know if my installing Win 7 and providing a Win 7 Product Key may have overwritten or deleted the original Win 8 Product License. Can I find the Win 8 Product License? Continue reading...

I have Windows 8 and have enjoyed challenging myself to the many puzzles offered and earning enough "gold" to download more. Until 2 days ago, I could do this.

Why all of a sudden? I can still use the existing puzzles that are already downloaded.... I just can't get more. Continue reading...
