Can't get laptop to upgrade to Anniversary Update.
OK so I have an Asus Zenbook Prime(UX31A) Ultrabook. It was purchased in 2013 and came with Windows 8 x64 Pro installed. The specs are … Intel i7, 256gig SSD drive, 4gig memory. I’ve since updated it to 8.1, then ultimately to Windows 10 Pro TH2 (x64).
That said, I had issues getting it to update to Threshold 2 and ultimately had to do a clean install to get TH2 installed. It now seems I have to do the same to get the Anniversary update to install as nothing else seems to work; BTW it’s not even been offered through Windows Update.
Anyway each time I try to install I either get an error code telling me something went wrong, or no error code and a failed install. This is via ISO download and mounting the image, Media Creation tool via USB update, or the get Window 10 Anniversary link.
Bottom line is there have been two major Windows 10 updates (TH2, Anniversary), and in both instances I’m being forced to do a clean install on my laptop. BTW there were no issues updating my desktop. In fact, it was updated through Windows update without issue. Only the laptop seems to require a clean install.
Any thoughts as to why this is happening? And yes, I have enough disk space as this is checked during the update and no warnings are issued.
Thanks.
