Hi All,
Got a Windows 8.1 laptop that refuses to upgrade to Windows 10. I tried it back when the update was readily available/free but my father in law was travelling so didn't get much time on it. It failed a few times.
I've had it again this week, and I've tried loads of "This fixed it for me" scenarios but none work for me.
I've tried
* chkdsk/sfc first
* deleting %system%/SoftwareDownload
* using usb media (lets me select upgrade but then asks for key with no skip)
* checked device manager, no missing drivers/failed devices.
* nothing plugged in other than power
Every time it gets to 75% on the blue screen and stops, left it for over 10 hours and not moved. Turn it off and back on and restores to Windows 8.1 fine.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!
