Windows 10: My Windows 10 Laptop has 'Windows Installer' is stuck on 'Preparing to Install'

My Windows 10 Laptop has 'Windows Installer' is stuck on 'Preparing Install', I don't know what I did, it started from FormatFactory and I think I did 'OK' and said 'Error 1706. No valid source could be found for product FormatFactory. Windows Installer cannot continue.' and then went to 'Windows Installer' and it is stuck on Preparing to Install... And then as I was about to post this, Windows Installer is saying 'Install server is not responding'

I also check the Windows Update and there are updates to do, but I don't know what to do because this laptop I am using, I use it for school. So please help!


Thanks for reading,

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.

Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
