Windows 10: System Restore no longer works after upgrading to Windows 10 October 2018 version 1809. How...

I noticed I no longer have any system restore points after upgrading to Windows 10 1809. How can go back to an earlier point in time to fix a problem?

:)

 

Question: Is the Windows 10 October 2018 version 1809 Upgrade Free?

Answer:

If you are currently running any of the following versions of Windows 10, the next version Windows 10 October 2018 Update version 1809 is free:

Windows 10 1507 - build 10240

Windows 10 1511

Windows 10 1607

Windows 10 1703

Windows 10 1709

Windows 10 1803

Users running Windows 7 or Windows 8 and earlier versions will need to purchase a license in order upgrade to Windows 10. Once you upgrade to Windows 10, future upgrades will be free as long as your computer supports it.

How likely is it my Dell Inspiron 7558 will run Windows 10 version 1809 come October of 2018? (June 16, 2018)

Neither System Information nor Intel HD Graphics Control Panel tells me, they both just say "Intel HD Graphics". Just as expected, Windows 10 build 17134 much improves the responsiveness of the start menu and taskbar over build 16299 and I will ask whether
or not my Inspiron 7558 can run the successor to Windows 10 version 1809 come October 2018.

 

Windows 10 upgrade problem, no input accepted

I really hate having to come here and ask for help, but I really am stumped. It hurts my geek pride. I have a PC with fairly modern hardware in it. It has a p8p67 pro in it. I have tried upgrading windows 10 on it twice now. Both times I have had the same result.

After windows finishes upgrading it goes to the log in/set up screen. I can't do anything. No keyboard or mouse input is accepted.

I will list some, or hopefully all, of the troubleshooting steps I have tried:

• Move keyboard and mouse to different USB ports.
• Try different keyboard or mouse.
• Restart computer, repeatedly.
• Google for related issues.
• Update Bios, because why not.
• Create boot media and revert to windows 7.

The windows 10 system restore boot media works fine with keyboard and mouse. All USB ports work in windows 7. I don't know what is wrong. I suspect that windows 10 is lacking a driver of some sort, but since the computer accepts no input I have no way of checking for which driver let alone installing it.

Please help me figure this out. If I have to revert back to windows 7 again, I am not going to get it upgraded to windows 10. Thank you in advanced.
