Guest Welfordian Posted May 27, 2014 Posted May 27, 2014 Hello, I recently reset my Windows 8 computer (using the reset functions included in the software). Now, after the (first) reset, I encountered many problems. Windows Update wouldn't work at all, I couldn't get into "Change PC Settings" from the charms menu at the right.

After this, I booted back into Windows to see boot had failed. Luckily I had a thumb drive with a boot iso. I reset the computer once again. So I got back into Windows and started to update Windows. The first update worked. However, at the time of writing this article I cannot install further updates, install Windows 8.1 or start Defender. Any suggestions? Thanks, Joshua. P.S.
