Windows 10: Trying to upgrade a Win 7 Pro pc to Win 10 and keep getting "Installation failed in Safe_OS...

Trying to upgrade a Win 7 Pro pc to Win 10 and keep getting "Installation failed in Safe_OSphase with error during Migrate_data operation. Have tried everything i can find on it. I've tried the troubleshooter, SFC, cleaned the Registry, downloaded the latest updates from Microsoft website and tried to run it manually and still won't update. There is no AV on it except the default that comes with Win 7.


It did have the Dell Data Encryption on it but we removed it as well.


Here's the error code

0x8007001F - 0x2000D

"Installation failed in Safe_OS phase with error during Migrate_data operation"


This is the first of 20 pc's that we have to do at this clinic. And it won't update. Hopefully its a one off. This our test pc that they gave us to try using the Win 10 upgrade tool.

Recommend hardware changes for upgrading from Win-7 to Win-10

Bree
I followed your suggestions (2nd Aug 19) for installing Win-10. Made the bootable flash drive successfully through the media creation tool. But when I attempted to upgrade and activate to Win-10 (64 bit) from within Win-7 (Pro-32 bit), I got the following error message:

Error # OxC1900101-Ox20017. " The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation"

I read the diagnostics under this error number and carried out the proposed fixes, i.e. update Win-7, uninstall Malwarebyte antivirus, disconnect all external hardware, e.g. printer, scanner, external hard drives. I then tried to repeat the steps to do the upgrade through the Win-10 bootable flash drive as before. Got the same error message.
Appreciate any further comments and suggestions as to (a) what does a failure in the SAFE_OS during boot operation mean, (b) what can I do to solve it. Is this anything to do with the hardware in my computer? I listed these in my first posting above.
Thanks for any help

 

Failed Win 7 to 10 upgrade Safe_OS Phase

I am trying to upgrade from Win 7 pro to Win 10. I've made sure I am fully patched, AV off or uninstalled, tried both ISO and USB media. It stopps and reverts after the second boot each time with the failure SAFE_OS phase. It's a Dell XPS 8300 2 TB drive.
