Windows 10: No Option to "Reserve" Windows 10. (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.)

I have just ran and installed all optional Windows Updates, I can confirm that I do have KB3035583 and I meet all system requirements for the operating system. I also meet all of the following points published by Microsoft:

I have no hope left, I have been trying to resolve this for a few hours now. No luck. Is there anything else I need to know or any more updates I may need? Thanks.

How big is the ISO download

You have Windows 7 Home Premium so you will get Windows 10 Home 64 bit

 

W7 to W10 upgrade

Yes it would why not?

or did you mean you are running Windows 7 32 bits?

 

Have you done a scan/now? I had issues similar to yours. My KB3035583 file was corrupt and had to be fixed. if it is that, fairly easy work around on it.
SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker - Windows 7 Help Forums

 

I am currently running the scan. I'll be back in around 10-15 mins with the results. Thanks

 

I am absolutely no expert, not even close. I just fixed my own issue it all. The CBS.log is going to be quite large. What i did was when I opened it in notepad I hit the edit at top and went to find. In the box I typed in "find" no quotes. It is a very specific thing and will tell you what/if anything is corrupted.
I used it simply as a starting point

 

The "sfc /scannow" came up with no errors. The sfcdetails.txt file was empty, so I am now running "sfc /verifyonly", I will then open the file again and see if the results change, if not, I'm not sure where to turn next.

EDIT:

I have ran both scans for the log file to come up blank... Any suggestions on what to do next?! *Sad

 

Sorry that is the best I can do. With that solving my issue it took me down another path. I do wish you the best of luck in this experience.

 

I want to reserve my free copy of Windows 10, but I dont see - Microsoft Community

See if that thread helps. The command there magically put the ten icon in my tray like it was supposed to be.

 

I finally got the icon to appear on my taskbar 5 mins ago.
So, this is how I did it:
1. Download and run this tool: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...?wa=wsignin1.0
2. uninstall KB3035583 and rebooted my computer
3. Run again the previous tool, which was already downloaded in my computer (filename: WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab)
4. Run the Windows Update. The previous update was found and installed.
5. Rebooted my computer again.
6. Checked again for updates - 2 new updates were found (I don't know why they were missing until now), I don't remember exactly what KB's... sorry about this
7. Windows Update was asking for reboot so I rebooted my computer again
8. Made sure that "Customer Experience Improvement Program" was set to "No". I really don't want this.
Note: I left # 8 as "yes" so I don't think that really matters.
If you don't get the icon after doing the steps 1-4 then continue with the others and then post here and I will post the rest of the script that was included that I didn't have to do ok.
I do think running the tool was the key to fix the bug in my system.

good luck

 

I tried this earlier before I installed updates abut it's now stuck in an infinite loop.... *Sad No errors though...

 

Did you attempt the change in the script suggested by NathanRB in his post? I got the endless loop too and tweaked the script and it worked.

 

Hello everybody. Sorry for inactivity, I had other issues which, fortunately, are now resolved.
As I was following Scramjet's steps, the icon popped up out of the blue. Just as I was downloading the tool. I guess I have no exact fix for this... I had done the following steps up to this point:

- First I ran all optional updates. This installed KB3035583 although, after first reboot, no luck.
- Then I tried the trick including running the batch file, again, no immediate results.
- I ran the .bat trick a couple of times, slightly altering the method each time. But yet again, no immediate results.

I didn't even shut down properly on my last PC session, so today I was greeted with the "resuming windows" screen. After resuming my session, still no button, although a few minutes after coming back to this thread and downloading the tool that Scramjet recommended, it popped up. I didn't even run the thing but oh well.

I guess that leaves me with no clear fix, but either way, my problem is now resolved. With this in mind, I would like to thank all of you for your contributions. To those reading this thread and are in need of help, please try all the steps in bold that I talked about above. To find the "batch file trick" please follow this link: http://tinyurl.com/odoegmd

Again, even though there was no certain or clear fix for my issue, I'd like to thank you all.

Great to see you got the icon on your taskbar Tamzin. You were like me.. I tried many fixes and finally the icon popped. It could have been a combination of several but all good now.

Cheers

 

Hi,

I too have tried all the steps shown in the Microsoft Answers link. I've uninstalled the KBs (three times) and run all the scripts (making amendments as suggested but no icon.

I've run steps 1 to 3 and this found the update plus two others (one was for my printer). Done the reboot and run update again, it showed the printer update again? This installed Ok, again.

The support tool for windows update found an error with a registry key, which it fixed second time around.

Still no icon though
