It works for my ETKA in a VM. But sometimes the VM crashes and reboots. I have to Overwrite it with a clean copy of VM.
I guess that these tips above are not the real proper way of using 8.1. Maybe somebody has another idea?

EtStart -> 'Path not found' error solution
I found this solution from little john's post (post#37), so feel free to thank his post and give +rep to the guy.
Steps:
1) Once you're done installing Etka 8.0, restart your computer
2) When your system boots up again, DO NOT OPEN THE ETKA SHORTCUT ON YOUR DESKTOP
3) Delete the 'ETKA' shortcut from your Desktop
4) Then navigate to C:/ETKA/PROG and make a shortcut of the EtStartn.exe and copy the new shortcut to your Desktop
5) After that download the attachment 'ETK8_2018-V1_CORRECTION-INT.rar', extract 'ETK8_2018-V1_CORRECTION-INT.exe' on your Desktop, and double click the file (Credit to isdochegal for sharing this file. Don't forget to hit the thanks button on his post and +rep him)
Finally, open ETKA from the newly created shortcut on your Desktop.
Note: You have to disable your Antivirus when extracting 'ETK8_2018-V1_CORRECTION-INT.exe', cause some Antivirus software recognize it as a trojan (but it's not).
How to Update ETKA's Data
Check this post by KrAzYtHeBoY's.
Don't forget to thank KrAzYtHeBoY post and +rep him.
If you get stuck when the setup will request you to install ETKA 8.1:
1. Prerequisite: The folder "C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\" is available in your ETKA Folder.
2. Copy the contents of the folder "C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\PROG\" to "C:\ETKA\PROG1\" and overwrite the existing files.
3. Copy the contents of the folder "C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\DATA\" to "C:\ETKA\DATA\" and overwrite the existing files.
Found this information on planet-fireball's post#121
4. Copy the contents of the folder "C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\PROG\" to "C:\ETKA\PROG2\" and overwrite the existing files.
(Thank you spec80 for mentioning this on your post)
Then once you are done copying the files, try to run the installer C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\ETKA_81_Install.exe. It will fail again with an error message 'No etka8 instalation was found'. Close all the open windows and start ETKA again, it should have the 8.1 version. From there let the system continue with the updates.

For me it was also necessary to make the following:
Copy the contents of the "C: \ ETKA \ PROG \ IX \ PROG \" folder into C: \ ETKA \ PROG2 \ "and overwrite the existing files.
The update is done correctly until 1246, but no action 3D function, see screenshot:

Thank you all for the shared info.
It wasn't easy to install because of errors and issues, but all the needed info is in the thread.
In my case I needed the ETK8_2018-V1_CORRECTION-INT.EXE and copying the folders to get 8.1 (including the POI changes in the ini filles)
I also had some errors during the updates, after 8.1, and program would not start anymore.
I could solve it by doing a copy from "C:\ETKA\PROG\IX\PROG\" to "C:\ETKA\PROG1\" and "C:\ETKA\PROG2\"
