Windows 10: Having troubles upgrading Windows 7 to Windows 10 on pc that previously had Windows 10...

The computer I have been using has had windows 10 installed on it before, back when the free upgrade was still available, but decided to go back to windows 7 for personal comfort. After using windows 10 for work, I have decided to reinstall windows 10 for my own personal computer.


I have download the MediaCreationTool1903.exe and let it ran, following the steps of (1) agreeing to the terms and conditions, (2) clicking on upgrading the pc now, and (3) trying to let it update.


However, I continue to run into the issue of the tool (1) closing and saying that I need to restart the computer or (2) having the tool be stuck at the "Getting updates" be stuck at 46%


I have tried to use these methods to try and fix it:

-Restarting the computer and applying the update again

-Using the "cmd" as administrator and entering the command "sfc/scannow"

-Using the troubleshooter for Windows Update to detect/fix issues (troubleshooter is probably trying to find updates on Windows 7)


Unfortunately, none have worked so far.


Any help and advice would be much appreciated.


Thank you for your time and patients. Have fantastic rest of your day.

:)

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.

 

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

 

Is it time for Windows 10 already?
