Windows 10: Problems moving data from W7 to W10

I'm moving my wife's data from her W7 laptop to a W10 laptop (W10 home 1903, build 18362.836) and I'm hitting problems. I've transferred her data fine but: 1. I cannot access her thunderbird profile which is at users/../.../roaming/Thunderbird/profiles/...... I get access denied. How do I gain access? 2. Similar thing with another program where I am told the User access control has blocked my access to this program for my protection. How do I gain access from UAC? Thank you.

W7 access of W10 share

On my home network W10 systems can access shares on other W10 systems, and W10 can access W7 shares. However, when W7 tries to access a W10 share, it wants a network password. I give it the user/pswd I use to log in on the W10 but that doesn't help.

I found one place:
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/cannot-access-shared-folder-windows
that suggested setting HKLM...Lsa\restrictanonymous to 1
but that didn't seem to help.

TIA!

 

W7 to W10 upgrade

I have tried to upgrade to W10 home premium from my 64-bit W7 home premium operating system on my laptop. I checked that I meet all requirements and have tried everything anyone ever suggested. I wasted 2 days in December 2015, and still failed.

I had no problem in March 2016 upgrading my desktop W7 Ultimate to W10, so I thought I might try again to upgrade my W7 home premium.

I have now wasted another 2 days in March trying to upgrade the laptop. Either it is a problem with my laptop that the Windows Update Trouble-Shooter does not find, or W7 Home Premium (64) will not upgrade to W10. I give up.

 

Problems to upgrade from W7 To W10

Hi Martmcd,

I had already done what you suggested without any success, additionally I had also:

• Changed the region etc to USA
• Rebooted after having disabled all Startup Services (other than Microsoft) and also the Startup Applications from the System Configuration
• Refreshed the MBR by using the W7 RE console.
• I am only using Microsoft Security Essential, I did not uninstall it, but stopped it from running during the upgrade as done on the other PCs which were successfully upgraded.

I am running out of ideas, I could plan a refresh of the of the BCD, but this PC holds lots of valuable data and chargeable applications I am terrified of the consequences. (I have never attempted a BCD rebuild and do not know what to expect).

As previously indicated Microsoft upgrade ordering software has indicated that the PC is compatible with a W10 upgrade.

Do you have further suggestions
