Mobile OSs Windows 8.1 Preview is here

[0dev]

Dang, so classic shell isn't working right with 8.1 yet? I'm a HUGE lover of classic shell and I'm hoping they redesign it so it covers or eliminates the new "start" button. I have absolutely no idea why MS added a half a$$ start button with no menu, they didn't address what people were complaining about.

I'm sure they'll update it to use the built in button to bring up the menu soon.

I upgraded my PC from 7 to 8 yesterday, then upgraded to 8.1 Preview last night. Didn't have to reinstall any apps or programs. Is that only on the mobile version?

One thing that bugs me about 8.1 right now that the stock Photos app and the Skydrive app won't work. It says "Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later."

This version of 8.1 is the beta. When the final version comes out you will have to reinstall to update to it.
