On some devices it runs smoothly but on other one&#8217;s it could be a real nightmare&#8230; To be honest i assume the release was a little bit to early or the developers for the upgrade routines got a few beer to much during the development. As you can read iam currently not really happy with the upgrade process&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Why? I tried to upgrade a bunch of different devices and only on 50% the upgrade worked with the first try&#8230; On the other devices like the Surface Pro 2 it fails with really funny and nonsense error messages. There are already a lot of tweaks available but here is a small checklist to prepare the upgrade from my site.<\/p>\n<p>1) Run &#8220;<strong><code>Dism \/Online \/Cleanup-Image \/RestoreHealth\"<\/code><\/strong><code> to verify your current installation (Windows 8.x) is working fine and correct. Maybe you are required to solve seperate issue here, try google in this case.. :-)<br \/>\n2) Uninstall any Virus Scanner from your current Windows, Virus Scanners can cause a lot of issues during the upgrade.<br \/>\n3) Add a Registry entry \"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\WindowsUpdate\\OSUpgrade\" DWord 32-&gt;\u00a0\"AllowOSUpgrade\" and set it to \"1\". (This seams also to force the upgrade if you did not got the Microsoft upgrade notice in advance).<br \/>\n4) If you already tried to upgrade remove the $Windows.~BT and $Windows.~WS folders from drive C:<br \/>\n<\/code><code>5) Reboot and retry the upgrade thru Windows update.<\/code><\/p>\n<p>In some cases this will fix the issue but not always so i assume there will be some follow up articles&#8230;. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n<p>Cheers<\/p>\n<p>Michael<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello Folks, did you also already tried to upgrade to Windows 10?
