so I went to a local pawn shop where I bought my new laptop.... it has windows 8 already on it but to use any of the apps and stuff it wants me to download windows 8.1 from the store... so I went to the store clicked on it and it says "before you can get on windows 8.1 from the store you need to install the latest updates from the windows update"

so I went to the pc settings and went to updates checked for updates and it says I have 118 updates so I started them and went to work and came home to configuration failed reverting back or something like that and it was there for 3 hours!!! I just want to be able to use windows 8 to its full potential I really like the way it is and would be disappointed if I couldn't over something like this ::::cccccc

Try running the Windows 8.1 Update troubleshooter.
