    Windows 8 recovery keeps wiping out my installed programs

    I just purchased an Asus M51AC (i7 4770) with Windows 8 pre-installed.I dual boot with Ubuntu 12.04.3 and things work out fine.So what is the problem you might ask ?I tried to install Firefox, Google Chrome, Imgburn ... (all legal, not pirated software) for Windows 8 but the recovery keeps kicking in and wipe everything out.The machine is barely 2 weeks old, I don't want to void the warranty. I installed Ubuntu on a separate SSD, keeping the Windows drive untouched.Help ! - Please don't suggest that I join a Windows forum, because I will use W8 very sparingly.
