8

Another query that might take some time to get answered... As of now, AFAIK the Pro/Media Center Pack can only be downloaded via the "Add features" option in Windows 8.

  1. Is there an offline installer available? If not, what if we need to reinstall once the free offer period has passed?

  2. In any case, is there a way to slipstream what's downloaded into the Windows 8 (Pro) install?

The files are already included ion the Pro. Mount the Install.wim with DISM and use this command to upgrade the edition:

Dism /Image:C:\mount /Set-Edition:ProfessionalWMC

If you have your key, I would assume that you would have to readd your key and then you can redownload the media center pack stuff via Windows Update.
