[Question] Win 10 Upgrade Reboots at ~60%; 47% Installing Features...
OS: Windows 8.1*
*This is an upgrade of Windows 8, which was a fresh install after authenticating on a Windows 7 machine
So I finally figured enough time had gone by that the upgrade bugs had been solved....guess not!
I ran the upgrade option from the nag box and let it download the last bits (lol pun) of the Windows 10 upgrade, which I assumed would contain any of the fixes that solved the myriad issues people have been having during the upgrade process.
Everything had passed, there were zero incompatibilities detected
The machine reboots and enters in the rather nicely done upgrade screen and proceeds to copy files; 100% there.
Next it goes on to Installing Features and Drivers, and proceeds up to around 47%, when the machine reboots. I didn't catch any errors as the screen blanked and caught my attention in time to look up and see the POST screen.
However...I was not greeted by the login screen or another screen for continuing the setup (ie picking Express or Custom setup). Instead I was greeted with the 'Automatic Repair Screen', saying that Windows had encountered issues on boot up. I pretty sure I picked Shutdown, thinking it might fix it if I did a cold start. -- I was pretty disheartened. I keep a clean machine....why me
So the machine rebooted and, again, returned me to the 'Automatic Repair Screen'. I'm again pretty sure I picked Advanced Options. Either way the second time of seeing this screen Windows began the process of reverting to the previous version of Windows. -- In this case Windows 8.1
After combing through the Internet (and this forum's search) and seeing people only get about 10% into Installing Features and Drivers before issues came up. I turn to the forums, where I can better explain what happened and hopefully find a solution.
PS: Not sure if this should be in Bugs or here. I mean I was in the middle of Installation and Setup. But it was also a bug/error.
