    Updating Problem


    I just started to use a tablet. Windows 10 claims it updates automatically, which I see it does, upon searching the past update files. But for some reason there still is an update that it fails to install. It's an upgrade to the next level of windows 10 home edition.It upgrades everything else but that one. Does anyone haw any knowledge that they can shed as to why it fails to install this one. Kindly help if you can. Many Thanks.

    Sorry Norman, as I am not familiar with these tablets you need to wait for someone else to chime in.

    Tablets can be a nuisance to update. Firstly, lets find out your version.

    Open a command prompt and top line will say 10240 or 10586.

    If it says 10240, how much spare space do you have on the tablet?

    Ok - you need to download new iso from here to your sd card.

    Double click on it and run setup.exe and it should upgrade.

    Wow. This looks like it's above my non-technical brain. It shows 4 iso versions for windows 10. Which one should I use...Windows 10?
    Thanks

    I guess I'll have to try this operation. By the way what is the dif between Tech Benchs' solution compared to Microsoft's. It appears to be the same.
