Download an updated copy of Windows 8.1 with Update 1 and use the instructions in the following article to reinstall it:

⦁ Language

⦁ Windows 8.1 Version

If you bought Windows 8 from the Windows Store:

Go to this website and click on "Account/ Download + product keys " (near the page bottom), the information there should help you obtain your product key and order information. http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msus/en_US/home

or
