Microsoft has said that upgrades to versions of Windows 8.1 will be free, and the company’s Surface RT tablet will also be upgraded to Windows RT 8.1. The other devices with Windows RT include Asus’ VivoTab RT and Samsung’s Ativ Tab, but the companies did not respond to requests for comment on specific upgrade information.

Sales of devices with Windows RT have been poor. Some users of Dell XPS 10 have reported issues upgrading from Windows RT to the preview version of Windows RT 8.1, which was released in June. The tablet crashed, or users had to jump through hoops to get the upgrade to work. Some users of Lenovo’s Yoga 11 also reported upgrade issues.
