Windows 10: Making sure you are ready to Install

In the ISO setup, this is taking a LONG time. I would say over 10 minutes.





So, does anyone know what does this step actually do that's taking very long?

Would be nice to know why it is just taking forever.

making sure you're ready to install

Hi Eric,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are unable to upgrade to Windows 10 even after spending many hours on it.

I suggest you to download the Windows 10 ISO and create a Media Creation Tool and then perform Automatic Repair.

Refer to the following link to download Windows 10 ISO Media:

Download Windows 10

making sure you're ready to install

I spent ages downloading everything, so that I would be able to install win 10. Than I started the install. It then sat on a screen for 17 hours which stated "making sure you're ready to install" "this will take a few minutes" "Please wait". 6 little dots
kept going around in a circle for the 17 hours before I cancelled the upgrade.

I have I7-3770K 3.5 GHZ CPU and fast DDR3 memory running win 7 pro. I have another computer running Win 7 ultimate. The computer has now being running for 1 hour cleaning up before it closes (this will take a few minutes). So far I'll have to say it is not
worth upgrading to Win 10. Nothing installed in a period of 24 hours, what a wast of time and energy. I've had just about every OS since the old DOS days and this would have to be the worst ever.

WHY, IS IT SO BAD.
