Desktop Interupted Transfers After Windows 8.1 Upgrade

Hi all, this is my first post. Quite unintentionally, I upgraded my PC from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 via Windows Store last week. Immediately afterward, TiVo Desktop HNP stopped being able to transfer programs to my PC. It can see the programs on both my TiVos, seems to be about to transfer, and then says Some Transfers Have Been Interrupted. Reason is: The Specified File Cannot Be Found.

I have checked many threads on this awesome site, and tried several things. I removed the original TiVo Desktop using the TiVo Cleaner, and re-installed it. I have restarted my PC and TiVos in various orders, and waited for a couple of days. No change. My two Series 3 TiVos can transfer to each other, and also download from my PC. I have tried connecting to my TiVos directly on the internet via TiVo login and my MAK, and these work [but download is terribly slow, and apparently violates my HNP agreement].

In the meantime, I did the same thing on my partner's Windows 8 laptop, and can still transfer files with the identical Desktop HNP. However, my TiVos cannot see the laptop, so I would have to transfer shows to the laptop, move to a disk, copy to my PC, and then transfer back to the TiVos when I want to watch. I would rather be able to use my own PC directly.

Finally, the PC running Windows 8.1 also cannot play my TiVo files any longer!

I know there was a problem with curl.conf and outdated cookies previously based on another thread, and I checked that and used their recommended curl.conf file. No effect.

I can't see anyone else having a problem with Windows 8.1 on this website, so I am hoping that maybe I just have a simple setting error?? If anyone could help, I would much appreciate it. I use Firefox, rather than IE, and maybe there are some underlying Windows privacy settings?? My Windows 8 knowledge is somewhat limited, I just use it. Otherwise, I think I might just have to access some outside help to revert to Windows 8...:(
