THAT was absolutely NO help at all. Maybe I need a young geek not an old geek. Sorry, not being sarcastic, just may need someone that knows more about my PC and Windows 8.1
First of all, I clicked on the word "guide" twice. Yes it brings me to a page where at the bottom of it says click here to update to windows 8.1, I did, no good.
Also, I have updated and it says to update to 8.1 for free still, each time I go to windows updates. Tryed that too and it takes me to the tiles, I click on store tile, which comes up for about half a second, then flips back to the start/tile page.
If you know of any live text help or even phone help for this. It would be much abliged. I have never had much luck with forum help over the years. And I don't put much stock into it due to the fact it takes so long for all this back and forth answer and question.
