Windows 10: Incomplete installation of Windows 10

Hi, i started updating win10 (as I did successfully on my laptop) on my desktop but half-way through the internet connection went down and I'm now left with with a blue error page from Win10 and no means of reconnection to the Internet because I have to click a positive 'Connect' button everytime to launch the connection via the BT router. I can attach an ethernet cable but the computer will need to know the network and password which I can't do either. Any suggestions bearing mind my basic (very) skills?

Incomplete Installation of Windows 10

Thanks for the detailed information. I'll give it a try. It may, however, be beyond my technical skills.

 

Incomplete Installation of Windows 10

I installed Windows 10 over Windows 7. The home screen is windows 10 but various pieces of Windows 10 are nonfunctional. Thus, the small Windows icon in the lower left-hand corner of the screen produces nothing when clicked. That in turn means that much
of Windows 10 is not functioning. What options are available to make this work?

I have an old Toshiba laptop--a Satellite L305-S5970 with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor T6400 and 3GB SDRAM.

 

Hello brianhill,

Actually the network cable route should work fine because passwords are not needed, the wired network just works. *Smile
