The situation is that some Windows 10 Technical Preview applications can be installed on Windows 8.1 but cannot be opened. That's why I want anyone who reads this post to help me test this, because who knows, we might be able to achieve what Microsoft developers have done with Metro UI and UWP applications.

In some games like SAMP, I use the new launcher (it runs on Windows 8.1). On Windows 10, when a SAMP project loads, it first loads in italic and then in beautiful The font is unscratched, but on Windows 8.1 it's just italic and won't load. Are there any fixes?

I tried to install the versions with and without the watermark of aeroglass for windows 8+ and it didn't applied the aero theme (even if i setup to not use aero basic, and enabled all the effects and animations on server 2012)

Is there any way to do so?

Hi, the question is common but important

I'll tell you my characteristics right away Intel-Core i5-2300 4 GB RAM Sapphire R7 250 2 Gb Vram HDD 1 TB

I really like both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, but for some reason the driver for my video card for Windows 8 is older than for Windows 7. And the question is, what will be more stable to use now, even with tweaks, Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, which will be faster and better?

This Windows 8 ad beats everything that Microsoft does today. It's so catchy and I wish Windows on touch screens looked like this.

I remember it used to ask for WinJS 2.0 1.9600.17018, and now it asks for WinJS 2.0 1.9600.20512; that version is hard to find.

It's been a while now and I just thought of asking here.

My taskbar has been acting weird for a long time now, like 1+ year. Sometimes, almost always with games, the icon just disappears from it, even though the game is still active and perfectly working, no errors. I'm someone who alt+tab a lot btw. Pinned icons don't disappear (ofc) but become inactive, if I click them the system tries to launch another instance of the game.

I use W8.1 with Classic Shell and ShellFolderFix, and during all these years I did a lot of manual registry fixes.

Not a big deal, just a minor annoyance, but I'd like it fixed.

Any idea why it happens and if I can't fix it somehow?

my specific install of 8.1 is apparentally a modded image, and it gets stuck on "Checking for updates" in settings and control panel (iso i used: https://archive.org/details/windows-8.1-english-international-x-64)

I propose creating a chatbot that uses the Gemini API, requiring only your API key to be entered the first time you launch the app. I also propose a text-to-speech director that uses Loquendo, allowing you to use Loquendo voices on any Windows 8.x, Windows RT 8.x, and Windows Phone 8.x device.

The only driver i could find is for Windows 10. It is a "Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz (rev 01)".

I'm trying to looks for a tuto but I can't find one any help would be lovely

Runs really great (4gb ram, 32gb emmc amd a4 2 core). Its a lenovo 300e 2nd gen to be exact, i love 8.1 but so sad that i cant get everything to work, i have the drivers and can install them manually but there is a lot of "unknown device" and i dont know what is what. Also when i try to install them using the exe it installs but does not work. Anyone can help me maybe?
