  1. Windows 10 Upgrade stuck at 87%, even after troubleshooting


    PC Specs:

    Windows 8.1 64-Bit
    Zoostorm Gaming PC
    Intel Core i7-4770
    16GB DDR3 Ram 1,333Mhz
    Nvidia GeForce GTX 760
    1TB Western Digital 7200 RPM SATA
    6 * HD partitions: 300MB Recovery, 260MB EFI System, 919.32GB NTFS (C*Smile, 451MB Recovery, 350MB Recovery, 10.74GB Recovery

    Troubleshooting:

    Removed all non-essential peripherals
    Deleted graphics driver
    Deleted all old unused drivers
    Attempted install in VGA mode (prior to this the best achieved was restarting prior to copying settings before hanging)
    Repeated attempts (at least 5)

    I've managed to install Windows 10 on two laptops (Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1HU with additional 8GB Ram, and a Sony Vaio SVE1511P1E with 256GB replacement Western Digital HD), an old desktop PC, and a Toshiba Encore tablet without issue (bar an ongoing issue with a Toshiba laptop that's affecting Ubuntu as well - likely HD related). All using the same Windows Live email login.

    Any assistance gratefully received.

    :)

    Windows 10 stops configuring at 87% and then says failed.

    Thanks BRCjr!

    I think you are on to something here. I had similar issue with my notebook. After a successful upgrade of my desktop, my notebook got stuck at 87% and failed - no rhyme or reason. Took about two hours to get to 87%, and a total of 10 hours to fail. Like
    you suggested, I turned off the Bullguard firewall and anti-virus as well, then ran the upgrade. Took about 45 mins to get to the 87% mark, and then successfully completed the upgrade within 4 hours.

    Windows 10 upgrade stuck at 99% for hours

    Do you mean 4 to 7 hours from when I started, or 4 to 7 hours after it became stuck at 99%?

    Will the free upgrade period be extended past today, for people that are experiencing these difficulties?

  5. In the end I solved my issue.

    I got Microsoft to remotely run the install. What they did was download the ISO from Windows 10, mount it on my desktop, and then run the install. They skipped downloading updates during the process.

    Can't be sure it'll work for everyone, but worth a go.
