Any one get the update today

I'd say it'll be at 18.00 Irish time, that's when we normally get patch Tuesday updates

Haven't seen the update yet (UK here), according to Why can't I find the update in the Store? - Microsoft Windows Help, I need a couple of updates. Looked in my update history, I'm not seeing them. Guess we play 'the waiting game'...

Looks like I'm getting the updates I need to allow me to update to Update 1.

Got the update on my 2520 in UK. looks like the touch issue is fixed in internet explorer
Edit: and I lost another 1GB after the update

 

[jimmy1one]

I got 19 updates but I don't see update windows 8.1

Exactly what does it say is the version number of RT in your system

You could delete the update installation files from c:\windows\software distribution\download folder. It freed 1,5GB space for me.

the update is: Windows RT 8.1 Update (KB2919355)
It still shows rt 8.1. I don't know where to check the version number

Edit: it shows 6.3.9600 build 9600

I believe you have the update. One thing I realized is that the Start Screen Power Button is not appearing on the 2520 (not sure why). But the ability to PIN store apps to Desktop Task Bar is there so that suggests the update took place, and I have the same version as you.

My understanding is that it won't appear on tablets, only on computers designated as computers in the settings configured by the OEM. This is to prevent accidental shutdown.

Got the update for 2520 yesterday in the USA. I see the changes, not overly dramatic to me, but i did notice as soon as I come out of sleep using my pin - it defaults to me desktop first

Will doing this screw anything up, I'm there and about too delete the folder? Thanks.

Any idea if this finally fixes the sleep of death bug? I still had it prior, but power save on USB root hub is disabled and no symptoms.. haven't tried yet to enable power save yet....

I'm not sure if it's too early to tell, but my 2520 has been "sleep of death free" since I installed the update 1 (root hub power saving =ON). So far so good.

edit: aaaaaand it happened again. I guess the update 1 didn't solve this problem after all....unless this was a single incident.

I lost around 1Gb too; glad I have a 64Gb SD card. Hoping MSFT start reducing the size of RT.

I guess I'm lucky in that I've not had that issue. Yet...

It wont mess anything up, go through ''Disk Clean-up'' then ''clean up system files''.

You can change that. Right click on the taskbar, then in the window, click on ''navigation''. You'll see an option under ''Start Screen''. If the first box is ticked, untick it.

I don't have the search or power button on my start screen on my Lumia 2520, wonder if not having them is an RT thing.

I've got a 64gb card as well, but I can't install apps on it

Power buttons is only for larger displays. But you should have the search button next to your account picture
