Awesome! Thanks for the heads up.

[Elhuyar]

Thanks, I hope I will be able to activate the key later. I don't want to install Media Center right now unnecessarily.

I don't see any media center option in add features can anyone help?

[RickSOLET]

• Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search. (If you’re using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, and then click Search).
  
• Enter add features in the search box, and then tap or click Settings.
  
• Tap or click Add features to Windows 8.
  
• Then tap or click I already have a product key.
  
• Enter the product key, and then click Next.
  
• Read the license terms, select the check box to accept the license terms, and then click Add features.

Just select "already have a product key" and enter the code.

Do you have Windows 8 Pro? You should have a window that looks like this:

I have Enterprise Evaluation version. Does this only works on pro version?

[RUY]

I now installed pro version and found that feature but when i enter key it says" this key wont work "

[Frylock86]

It only works on Pro. Have you tried requesting a new key/made sure it was typed in correctly?
