    Win 10 (from 7 Ultimate) upgrade wants to wipe all settings


    I'm not sure if that is a message about hardware or about Win10 install. You'll have to post details (grab a picture with a camera or phone)

    If you have any encryption running, that might be the issue. There's very little information to go on, so members need your help by providing complete details about your machine and the issues you encounter.

    Hints don't solve technical issues *Wink
