    Windows Re-Install After Disk Fail


    The hard drive on my computer just failed and cannot be restored. Originally, I upgraded it from from Windows 7 (which came with the PC) to Windows 10 when it was free to do so. Do I need to reinstall Windows 7 before installing Windows 10 and do I have to use my Windows 7 activation key with Windows 10? Also, can I use the Media Creation Tool to do a new Windows 10 install?

    :)

    Windows Re-Install After Disk Fail

    KB4025339 Fails Install 0x80070564


    Thanks
    I am trying Eagle 51's suggestions now. Windows Update troubleshooter found a bunch of errors and fixed all but one.The update is trying to download KB4025339 again. I'll see what happens. At step one troubleshooter finishes with one error unresolved "Potential Windows Update Database Error Detected-Not Fixed". Windows update stalled at 0%.

    At step 2 same troubleshooter error. The KB finished a new download failed to install.
    Did step 3 KB has downloaded but fails to install.

    If Eagle's suggestion doesn't work I'll try EdTittel's suggestion

    Tried bothe Eagle & Ed 's suggestions - do not work. Anyone else?

    I have noticed that the latest update for my nvidia drivers has failed to update. Wondering about that!
