Windows 10: "Get Windows 10" app not showing up

I have 3 identical HP Pavilion All-IN-One pc's all with Windows 8.1. They came new with Win 8 and I upgraded to 8.1.

anyway,
All 3 never showed the little Window on the bottom right of the taskbar to receive Windows 10.......even my older Windows 7 PC received it??? Thoughts?

I know they are compatible and the Windows keys should be fine being they came new from HP directly a few years back, I only upgraded to 8.1 via the free download from MS.

I tried various troubleshooting by running a particular command script with no luck. Can one just "force" windows 10 to download or do I have to have the taskbar notification first?

Thanks,

:)

Hello Bigbwb,

If you like, you could also use step 3 in the tutorial below to upgrade to the free Windows 10 using the Media Creation Tool, and have it activated afterwards. *Smile

Thank you! So, I would use the Windows Key my pc came with originally to register it? I just dont want to upgrade it to 10 and find out I cannot register or it something else goes wrong*Smile

 

Brink, you should get paid for every time you've posted this today.

After you follow the process of upgrading to and activating Windows 10, you won't need a key for future clean installs of Windows 10 on that same computer. It will complete and activate.

 

I'd be rich if so. LOL

Can I reinstall Windows 10 on my computer after upgrading?

Once you’ve upgraded to Windows 10 using the USB drive or DVD, and use that to upgrade your device or reinstall after you’ve upgraded.

 

Sorry guys, I am sure you are quite busy with noobs like me*Smile I just didnt want to start the process only to find I screwed up somehow.

I am giving it a shot as we speak using your Tutorial!

Thanks again for the help,

 

After the upgrade to "10" I have no intention of doing anything else (including a clean install). I just want to upgrade, nothing more*Smile

 

It's just to let you know that you can clean install Windows 10 on the PC in the future if ever needed after you have upgraded to register the PC with the free Windows 10 activation. *Smile

 

Gotcha! Thanks guys!

 

Glad we could help. *Smile

 

It's nice to know that option is there to go right to a clean install, especially if you end up with a drive failure, corrupt install, etc.
