Easiest method to get windows 10 : If you have a legit/activated windows 8.1 then head over to Microsoft's page and download the windows media creation tool here -----> https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 , launch it and tick the 'upgrade this pc' option then you're good to go. PS: will it delete my files ? No it won't. If you're scared despite , you could back up your important stuffs. 1 Like |

jaid23:Check on your internet properly. You can disconnect and reconnect, it won't stop. Infact, mine got disconnected and reconnected more than 20 times before getting to 100%. What I did was that, when I discovered it didn't count a percent for some minutes, I would disconnect and reconnect and it would continue. |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 3:14pm On Aug 01, 2015 |
gondon:That is because you are trying to upgrade with 64bit version. Check on the 32bit option there and it would go through. |

nutarious:Who says Windows don't update with proxies? All my updates (8.1) before upgrading was through SS. Works like a breeze. As long as IE is configured accordingly, other apps (Windows apps) take their configs from IE. |

PulseWeb:The media cteation would ask you where you wanna save it, that's if you downloaded it as ISO. If you downloaded as an upgrade, go to your Computer, drive C or any driver Windows was installed, you will see something like this: $Windows BT... Something like that sha. The files are stored inside that folder in your C drive. |

puresoul1:Did you do an upgrade or a clean install? |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by puresoul1(m): 10:03am On Aug 03, 2015 |
dmcdad:clean install, |
Re: See Ways To Prepare For Windows 10 Upgrade by dmcdad: 12:14pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
puresoul1:You should do an upgrade first, then after activating it, you can then do a clean install and it would still be activated by Microsoft. The upgrade and first activation is very vital because that is what will pave the way for you doing a clean install on that same machine in the future without bothering yourself about cracks and all that for activation. |
