I still cannot update my Windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 10. Booted (EFI on Mac Pro 5.1) this morning in to my Win 8.1 and did the upgrade check, at first I was excited seeing this:
BUT, then checked the "PC compatibility report" and grrrrrr:
It's driving me nuts ATM. Why does this upgrade fail over one single driver?

Thanks for your prompt reply! I opened the mentioned "Appraiser.JSON" file, the contents already meet the requirements as posted in that thread:
So nothing to change in the file's content... Confused now!Code:{"JsonSuccessfullyWritten" : true, "JsonVersion" : 3, "JsonCreationTime" : "130800491614668440", "CompatSectionCount" : 0, "CompatSections" : [ ] }

Hi there
I'm assuming you are running Windows as a VM - if this is the case try uninstalling vmware tools on the W8.1 system before doing the upgrade and in the vmware config / settings remove the check from hardware acceleration and 3D support.
Upgrade W10.
Now re-install vmware tools plus re-check hardware acceleration and 3D.
(Note I haven't got a Macbook but vmware should be pretty consistent across all the platforms it runs on).

Resolved this issue by installing a .ISO AU-1607 as an update for my Windows 8.1 Pro x64 SSD. Lauched the SSD in Fusion VM and updated it. Very happy to have a Windows 10 update that is activated.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
