Namely, they weren’t able to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 after multiple tries. These are some reports users made on Windows support forum’s dedicated thread: Now, there are multiple reasons for this error to occur, starting from hardware incompatibility to update server issues or even license problems. There are some things users can do in regard to this, but, the best advice we can offer is to simply wait for a couple of days until everything settles down. ”Same issue, several retries, several hours each attempt. I am aware the media creation tool exists, but Microsoft’s webpage once mentioned that you needed to use your Windows’ UPGRADE option to avoid being left with an unactivated copy. Has this changed? I do NOT want to end up with a semi-pirated copy AT ALL.” In case you’ve experienced difficulties with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update upgrade, try using the steps listed below:

Check the system requirements. Restart your PC a few times before the upgrade. Disable peripheral devices, like USB webcam, card reader or printer temporarily. Update BIOS if updates are available. Try to upgrade with the ISO DVD media or bootable USB drive.

Upgrade issues aren’t a novelty for Microsoft, but they’ll eventually address the problems at hand as they did after the previous release. Of course, we’ll make sure to provide you with any new information as soon as possible.
