Restart already. Still the same & also I tried to manually install it but fail

so how to force upgrade to win10? Or the file will be manually downloaded?

Checked C:\$windows.~BT, 140mb only

Just leave it to download. Last night I was at 140mb at around 1130pm. This morning already 6GB. But still no upgrade notice

Thanks. Yea, will just leave it overnight to do its thing

upgrade to windows 10 first, then refresh your pc, which is known as reformat in windows 7 era, but the process is much more simple in windows 8 and 10 now
just click refresh, windows will do the rest

hi all, can i force the windows 10 to download ? i already have the icon there and reserved.

patience is key. let it do its things.

ok if this doesn't work well, wait patiently for the official iso, so that you can do an offline upgrade.

oh we have different concepts about clean install. to me it means to wipe the disk using diskpart > clean to clear everything, and starts from scratch. a windows refresh doesn't do that.

windows refresh is doing that in the background
just that you don't see it
we manage to make a reserved windows image on temporary floating partition to make sure the windows is able to install again by itself
the effect of that is the same as complete wipe and start from scratch

how large is the full file size suppose to be? 5.6gb now.

mine is 5.94 gb
Windows 10 pro 64bit i assume

thanks for reply bro, then i should just keep waiting until it done

oh i didn't realize that. i still prefer doing it manually haha

it should be more than 6gb from what i have read.

look guys, before you jump into this upgrade thing, make sure that you understand there will be missing stuff in w10 compared to previous os. notably windows updates will be automatic if you're upgrading to home edition, and you have no control on which to update (as of this writing); windows media center is gone; desktop gadgets is gone too.

hmmm the GWX shows 3GB background download requires

maybe microsoft did not push complete windows 10 installer yet, my laptop only downloaded 4.xx gb

i have reserve the GWX but till now i dont see any upgrade or update or any download program running

I open up windows update and starts to download windows 10

i received the upgrade dy

maybe i'll buy physical disc instead. update seems abit too hassle.

Do update us on how it goes bro. Will update tonight

Windows 10 installed around 25 minutes on SSD



it did not have any options to have a "Clean install " for the upgrade from windows 7, so my files and docuemnt are kept.

i think i going to "clean install" windows 10 soon

FYI: you can revert to the previous OS if u dun like

please share how to do clean install...like copy the image file into usb?

ok.

just completed a fresh install with a home-brew w10 installer based on .esd in the $Windows.~BT folder.

in the installation process just skip everything that ask you about product key. once os installation is completed, install drivers if necessary, then connect to the internet. it's automatically activated.
