Can I up date windows 8.1 to windows 8.1 pro with out losing anything?<br />
<br />
I have a cd &nbsp;windows 8.1 pro with wmc that I bought some time ago that I was going to use on my notebook, but it went bad and I had to buy another one, but I thought it had windows 8.1 pro, but it has only windows 8.1 not pro and wmc will only work on pro.<br />
I am not sure I want to do it if I am going to lose information or data.<br />

Windows 8 is a personal computer operating system developed by Microsoft as part of the Windows NT family of operating systems, with an emphasis on improving its user experience on tablets. In particular, these changes included a touch-optimized Windows shell based on Microsoft's "Metro" design language, the Start screen, a new platform for developing apps with an emphasis on touchscreen input, integration with online services, support for USB 3.0, Advanced Format hard drives, near field communications, and cloud computing. Additional security features were introduced, such as built-in antivirus software, integration with Microsoft SmartScreen phishing filtering service and support for UEFI Secure Boot on supported devices with UEFI firmware.
