Windows 10 upgrade question

**badkuk** · July 22nd, 2016 01:06 PM

Has anyone experienced this...

i've been trying to upgrade my Thinkpad X220(running win7) to Windows 10 for weeks now. i've tried many times to upgrade it, but every time i click "Upgrade Now", it seems to hang. i've tried terminating and restarting it many times, same result.

i've tried disabled the firewall and AV, and freeing up disk space; same result.

Any suggestions? tia

follow these instructions dude.

you need to download the media creation tool which will perform the upgrade automatically.
just follow the screen instructions.

In my case, while Windows 10 was installing/copying files (when all files have been downloaded).

I turned off the WiFi...

Strangely, it worked!

Downloaded successfully but installation got stuck at 99-freakin'-percent. I decided to call it quits after 5 hours of nothing happening. Will try to install again this weekend.

kanina ko lang ni- upgrade ‘yung decade- old na VAIO SR ko (Windows 7 Ultimate).
hindi ko na sanA upgrade eh (kasi baka matagal mag download) kaya lang tuwing bubuksan ko, labas ng labas ‘yung message na “… last chance for free upgrade” so itinuloy ko na rin.

at first, check muna siya kung “enough space, compatibility, etc.”. kung ok eh di “next”… downloading na, but after a few seconds lang stop na siya. “not enough space” daw. loko ito ah, so check naman ako. i still have more than 120 GB free space on my drives. so, 2nd try… after few seconds, ganon pa rin. so close ko na naman. check na naman the drive space… but this time, check ko na kung saang drive pumapasok ‘yung program. meron palang nakalagay na loaded Memory Stick, at doon pumapasok ‘yung program.

so, pulled out the Memory Stick, restart the downloading, then in just about 2 hours > > > Windows 10. Am not familiar with the Thinkpad X220, pero sana nag ganito lang kasimple and problema.

Pwede ko ba shut down ang laptop kahit hindi pa tapos download and automatic na mag resume yung download pag open ko ulit ang laptop or restart lahat?

i remember trying this earlier, it didn't work at the time. i tried it yesterday, tumuloy naman, laptop has been upgraded to Windows 10...with days to spare. There are still some driver/Lenovo software issues to deal with, i'll pick them apart later.

Thank you sir ^_^
