Windows 10 boot problem
I recently got a Samsung 850 evo 250gb ssd and I decided to clone my old intel 330 ssd into it. It contains my Windows 7 OS and I decided that I upgrade the OS on the samsung to windows 10. Everything was fine and I got into the desktop after upgrading and then my Kaspersky downloaded something that is required to run in Windows 10 and requires a restart. After restarting I got into the circle loading thing then it disappears for a few seconds and goes back but it is stuck there. I've tried letting load for an hour and it's still there. Just to add information, I did an upgrade not a clean install which I really prefer over clean installation. I also tried booting into safe mode with networking but it seems I can't access open because it says that I don't have an administrator account even though there's only one account on it.
I might try to boot up my old ssd again and format the new one and try to clone it then upgrade it again and see if it works. I also forgot to mention that I skipped the updates before upgrading since I was doing it late at night and I have work the next day. So if anyone knows a possible solution to this without me doing the same thing again, please do tell me. Thanks.
