How can I upgrade to Windows 8 Enterprise to Windows 10 ?
Is there a way to go from Windows 8 enterprise to windows 8 to upgrade to windows 10?
Since I dont have windows 8 im not eligible to download Windows 8 for free.
I Heard there was a way for Windows 8 Enterprise users to use Windows 10 for free but had to use all the beta updates.
I just fixed my laptop after my old windows 8.1 single language went down, I got myself a windows 8 enterprise copy, however, I can't upgrade from enterprise to 8.1, is there is anyway to upgrade from windows 8 enterprise to 10? is there is iso to download when it's released?
View 1 RepliesI upgraded to the latest build (10240) today but managed to enter the enterprise product key by mistake. Is there anyway to change back to pro without reinstalling? I've tried reverting to the previous build but it says the files have been deleted.
View 2 RepliesAt one point I had my system as not activated. I searched for a product key and accidentally selected the enterprise key. Now I have an enterprise edition and I am afraid I will not get the free upgrade by the end of the month!
How can I reverse this without having to go back to windows 7 and start all over?
On a computer that does not have an Internet connection, I installed Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview 10130.
Now, how do I switch to its Enterprise edition remembering that this computer does not have Internet?
I have attempted to download windows 10 around 4/5 times, the download completes and states that my computer needs to restart upon which it claims it is configuring the windows 10 upgrade. I would assume from this point it would restart into the windows 10 configuration however each time I have tried it it restarts back into windows 8 as if nothing had happened.
My laptop then opens up windows update and says I am able to download windows 10. This is really frustrating as I can't even seem to get into the windows 10 setup.
As you can see I am attempting to download again but there is no trace at all of it attempting to install windows other than this failed update that you can see here.
I am using an HP Pavillion 15-n268a laptop.
When I downloaded Windows 8 Pro a few years ago my PC only had 1GB of RAM, so it installed the 32 Bit version. I have since added another GB of RAM. When Windows 10 is released, will I be able to download and install the 64 Bit version, or am I stuck with the 32 Bit version on this PC?
View 9 RepliesI have done the update once, waited around 2/3 hours. i then reset my PC. i then did the update again, waited at least 5 hours. still stuck at 32% if there is a fix for this, i will do anything. i have a brother who did this update. My laptop is a pavilion 15 8gb ram radeon hd 7600g win 8.1
View 1 RepliesI've successfully updated to Windows 10 on my two Surfaces, but there is some kind of issue on my desktop PC. The upgrade process from Windows 8 fails at about 71% total (Installing features and drivers at 91%), and the error I get is:
C1900101-40017 Windows Update ran into a problem.
When I click on "Get help with this error" I'm directed to a page with some general troubleshooting with Windows Update. I've run Windows update repair tool and it fixed some issues, but the installation failed again.
I have now tried freeing up more disk space which I admit was a bit tight and I'm preparing to run the update again. Still, I'd prefer if there was a more detailed error message or a log file where I could see what exactly went wrong, but there are no indications where I might find one (either in the error message, the troubleshooter, or Google). As it is, I'm shooting blind here and this will now be my fifth upgrade attempt.
A few years ago i bought a windows 8.0 pro upgrade dvd with a windows 8 pro upgrade key.
Will this windows 8.0 pro upgrade key work when i do a clean install of windows 10 pro version 1511?Or will it only work with a full licence key?
Have been locked out after upgrading from W7 to W10. No Microsoft account.
View 9 Repliesi have windows 8.1 and already reserved windows 10 , but windows update doesn't work always stuck at checking for updates i tried all fixes on the internet and it didn't work . so how do i get windows 10?
View 9 RepliesI've run the free Windows 10 upgrade twice on my Windows 8.1 laptop. Both times, Windows 10 would download. As my system restarted the install would take place and system finishes restarting. However, upon hitting the splash screen, I was back to Windows 8.1. Not sure why the install is failing. Each time, I receive a failure in the Windows Update popup. Did not have this problem on my desktop going from Windows 7 to 10.
View 2 RepliesI just upgraded my Windows 7 installation to Windows 10 using the Windows free upgrade. The upgrade completed successfully and I am able to boot into Windows 10.
I am not able to open any applications pinned to the taskbar. Even the windows menu is not launching! Hence I am stuck with only limited set of applications which have shortcuts on the desktop.

View 2 RepliesI have just accepted a free upgrade offer from Windows 7 to 10. I am now offered a login page with a demand for a password which I do not have and which I am not allowed change without a USB flash drive which I don't have. I now have no toolbar with which to access other sites or programmes and am having to write this post on a different laptop.

Clean install Windows 7 (with Original 7 key) and clean install Windows 10 (should automatically activate) to have a dual boot? Or is Microsoft going to block my activation saying you can't have both 7 and 10?

I want to upgrade to Windows 10 just to get the free upgrade and activate then revert back to Windows 7.
Later on down the road a year or so can I install Windows 10 with no problems activating it?
I'm currently running Windows 7 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad.
I have the Get Windows 10 icon showing. When I click it, it takes me to the Upgrade Now button. So far so good.
When I click the Upgrade Now button, I get the starting to download screen with the circle dots. After a few seconds, it then takes me to the Windows 7 'Windows Update' page in the control panel, where it says that 'windows is up to date'. And that's it.
How to get Windows 10 to upgrade? I've done other laptops without issue.

Are there any advantages to do now a clean Windows 10 installation?
I have been trying to update for a long time now. But the final upgrade wit keeps on saying : There's a problem please try again later. I have windows 7 (it's compatible to upgrade) and it's not a pirated version.

View 5 RepliesJust upgraded my work pc to windows 10. Haven't gotten to the desktop yet. I cannot no longer log in. It does not recognize my password. This has never happened before. Also, my login prompt under 8.1 was just the password. Now it also presents me with a selection for the user name and another one for the password. Didn't expect that problem. Moreover it does not react to when I request a reboot. (By the way, the pc is independent. It does NOT belong to a domain.)
