    Win 10 upgrade went sideways


    Attempted to update my new computer from Win10 Home to Win10 Pro. Errored during upgrade and didn't complete. Now I have a system that thinks it has WIN10 Enterprise for some reason but an unactivated version of it. Tried a reinstall from local disk and it isn't giving any error codes except to tell me it's an unactivated copy of win 10 Enterprise. Any windows help desk folks out there? Could use a hand.ThanksLarry

    :)

    is hardware OK (Win 7) for upgrade to windows 10

    I think in one of the other PC with win 7 or win 8.1 I run media creators tools and in some step prompt/found graphics card not supported... for win 10. I didn't found alone reading specs of win 10, but the tool says me... after changed graphics card the tool said all OK and continued OK with upgrade... That I ask to reach this step in this current PC - win 7 - must be all OK for the upgrade? Or must continue to upgrade to show this?
    and got to point

    • UPGRADE this PC now
    • Create media(DVD, USB stick, ISO)
    is hardware OK (Win 7) for an upgrade to windows 10 for this PC???

    Win 10 Upgrade From Home to Pro Went Sideways

    I'm happy to report that after reloading ALL the drivers then logging into my Microsoft Account and clicking "Upgrade" again the computer downloaded and installed Win 10 Pro.

    Win 10 Pro is now activated:

    Yippee!!! Thanks for the help, folks.

    P.S. - winver indicates that Windows is currently release 1803. I don't know if there is a problem with release 1809 that caused the upgrade to go sideways. I changed the Advanced Options in Windows Update to delay the future install of 1809.
