Windows 8.1 Compatibility


Userlevel 7
OK, let me say up front that I am fully aware that Preview and Beta OS builds are not officially supported.  That said, I do wonder what the current state of the code is in terms of compatibility with the current Windows 8.1 Preview release?

It appears to be barely OK...Password Manager is incompatible in Win 8.1 and I believe there are other incompaibilities as well. When will they update...I depend on Password Manager.
I am going to have to agree, things need to get ironed out fast, my subscription is soon to expire. I would prefer to remain a subscriber, but 8.1 compatibility will be the tipping point.

BostonJeff the password manager works fine in windows 8.1 as per your reply in the other thread. WSA works in both 8.0 and Windows 8.1. A statement of how WSA works barely in 8.1 is incorrect.

To add to what Rakanisheu says, I have heard that some users find a clean install following the upgrade to Windows 8.1 helps, but that is quite normal following ANY OS upgrade.  Here is a good post regarding this from TripleHelix.
 
In some cases simply re-installing the toolbar may also help.  Here is a toolbar utility to help this: http://download.webroot.com/toolbarfix.exe
