  1. Are Updates Transferable?


    I have a copy of Windows 7 Pro that i want to upgrade to Windows 10 but before upgrading i was thinking about slipstreaming updates into Windows 7 using Win toolkit. Then installing Windows 7 Pro with included updates and upgrading to Windows 10 from there. The reason i say this is because i believed that upgrading to Windows 10 from a Windows 7 install that has all the relevant updates, general updates, hotfixes, security updates and so on, would somehow make the Windows 10 install more stable as a opposed to upgrading without any updates or doing a clean install of windows 10. So it would basically be install Windows, enter product key, upgrade.

    so my question is
    Are Windows 7 Pro updates transferable to an upgraded Windows 10 Pro install?

    Thanks

    :)

    Hi Talha,

    You might be experiencing this issue due to corrupted Windows Update files. Repeated update attempts may cause Windows Update files to be corrupted. In line with this, we recommend that you download and run the Windows
    Update Troubleshooter
    . This automated tool resolves common Windows Update errors and fixes corrupted files.
    After the troubleshooter is done, try running Windows Update again.

    If the issue persists, you may refer to the following link for additional troubleshooting steps that you can try:
    Fix Windows Update issues. Kindly follow the guided walk-through until you reach the
    Fix Windows file corruption section.

    Additionally, you may download and install the failing updates manually from the Microsoft Update Catalog. Make sure to select the update that corresponds to the version and edition of your Windows installation. You may visit the Microsoft Update Catalog
    by clicking on this

    Are Updates Transferable?

    You only need to install windows 7 and SP1

    Windows 10 will overwrite Win7 anyway - so do not bother with updates or drivers..

    The answer to the question is, "No."

    However, slipstreaming the updates might be a good idea. You essentially will have a Windows image you will be satisfied with should the upgrade to Win 10 turn out disastrous. IOW, you will be creating an image while you're calm, instead of doing so while frustrated from the upgrade experience.

    SP1 is not required.

    No, they aren't. What I would do if I were you - install Windows 7. Do all the updates to it. Get it running 100% updated and stable. Make a backup image of it to either a big flash drive or external hard drive using Macrium Reflect Free. Copy getosstate.exe from the sources directory of Windows 10 USB, DVD or ISO to your desktop. Run it as administrator. Copy the resulting genuineticket.xml file to a safe place (along with your Windows 7 Product Key). Wipe the entire hard drive and clean install Windows 10. Use either the Windows 7 product key or genuineticket.xml file to activate it.

    A faulty Windows 7 installation will contribute to failure of the Windows 10 Upgrade process. A fully updated Windows 7 installation will do nothing to make the Windows 10 installation more stable.
