Windows 10: Scan drive for errors

I'm sorry i don't understand you?

 

That's probably because you are half my age.

 

Okay now i understand you, its not because of my age because i have tried to help many people like yourself.

 

As you grow older, you learn not to tempt fate - you don't experiment with things like How to Do a Repair Install of Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade unless you see it done physically by someone else after a bad experience.

 

As you grow up you learn who trust or not all we were doing was trying to help you all this time so where is the part where we made a mistake that make you not trust us. Also please stop talking to me like i'm a child i'm 41 years old.

 

You are still a child, I am old enough to be your grandfather. I have tried to end this conversation several times and you continue on by trying and forcing me to do something that I am not going to do.

 

I don't think you understand what an in-place upgrade does.

It's just like upgrading to the next version of Windows 10, except you are upgrading to the same version that you already have. I have done it several times, nothing was lost, all my files and installed apps are still there and working - I still have some apps that were installed back when this PC was running Windows 7. It fixes many problems, without loosing anything.

And if you don't like the results, like any other upgrade you have 10 days in which you can roll back to your previous system.

 

I have repair install lots of computers including my computer i never had any problem.

 

Yes. I already said I have...

 

Alright guys, I will give it a try and I will definitely get back. This still does not answer my original question as to why I got a notification with "click here for more information" and the link did nothing.

 

Well here you go, notice that the top 2 items are greyed out and it "was" about delete everything.

 

Make sure to create yourself a new Windows 10 Installation DVD and try again please?
Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

 

You get this if you try upgrading to a different base language than the existing system, or one is the 'N' version and the other isn't. To be able to keep personal files and apps you must make install media for the same language and type of system as you currently are running.

 

Using the same disk that I did the Windows 7 to 10 upgrade with; I downloaded the ISO before the upgrade and created the DVD. My opinion is that one of the updates, upgraded the version number and the old one is no longer valid.

 

How did you try to start the upgrade? Did you boot from the DVD? If so, that's not how to do it.

You have to run the Setup.exe on the DVD from within your existing Windows, same as the instructions for using a USB. And, the same as when using a USB, you must eject the DVD when it says it's copied all the files and about to reboot for the first time. You need to boot to your hard drive to continue the upgrade, not boot the DVD which would then offer to do a clean install.
