Cannot upgrade to WIN 10 from WIN7 sp1

Troubleshooting the Windows upgrade error 0x8007001f - 0x20006 typically requires troubleshooting log files which is tedious.

Consider these options:
Make a free backup image then run through these tutorials:
Upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 for Free
Clean Install Windows 10 Directly without having to Upgrade First

To install win 10 over Win 7 it will need around 20G or more free space on the main drive as it installs win 10 but keep the Win 7 to be able to roll back.
How much free space you have on the main drive?

Thank you for the reply(s)

I can't upgrade at all. This is what I get after when the upgrade gets to 100%:


"The Installation failed in SAFE_OS Phase with an error during Replicate_OC operation 0x8007001f - 0x20006"

I have 215Gb free space on the hard drive

Still need help, Thank you

Thank you,

This not my PC, trying to upgrade for a friend.

This is general tips. Apply one by one before you try to upgrade.
- Open a cmd window as administrator and type:
chkdsk c: /f
It will say the disk is in use and if you want to schedule to next start = Yes
- Back to windows, open a cmd window as administrator and type:
sfc /scannow
- Do a cleanup. Use built in Disk cleanup (%windir%\system32\cleanmgr.exe) or CCleaner
- Defrag C: (%windir%\system32\dfrgui.exe)
- Open MSConfig and disable all non MS services and all startup programs. Restart.

Disable the internet and run the setup.exe from Win 10 installation files.

This is an upgrade checklist: (modified for upgrading 7 to 10)

Code:

UPGRADE CHECK LIST:
Run through this check list before the next upgrade attempt:

1) remove nonessential hardware
docks
USB devices
printers
headset
speakers
joysticks
projectors
scanners
plotters
portable optical drives (CD, DVD)
microphones
cameras
webcams
smartphones
bluetooth devices
USB drives (other than a windows 10 iso if used for the upgrade)
USB Wireless Mouse or Keyboard Receiver, USB Wireless Network Card
secondary monitors


2) These should be the only attached devices:
wired mouse
wired keyboard
monitor

Any of these that have been done in the past week are not necessary to repeat:


3) open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste: (repair file system)
chkdsk /r /v C:
This may take many hours so plan to run overnight
Find the chkdsk report in the event viewer using the information in this link and post into the thread:

https://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/96938-check-disk-chkdsk-read-event-viewer-log.html

4) open administrative command prompt and copy and paste: (repair operating system)
sfc /scannow 

When this has completed > right click on the top bar or title bar of the administrative command prompt box > left click on edit then select all > right click on the top bar again > left click on edit then copy > paste into the thread

5) update windows (have all recommended updates installed) and reboot after updates

6) List and uninstall all non-Microsoft antivirus software
(This includes always on and manual software.)
(This includes running the applicable antivirus uninstall tools for any AV that could have been incompletely uninstalled)
(And this includes uninstalling Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) immediately before the upgrade attempt)

7) List and uninstall all non-Microsoft firewall software

8) List all Microsoft and non-Microsoft drive encryption software. 
Uninstall all non-Microsoft disk encryption software

9) Run disk cleanup to clean temporary and system files

11) Consider placing the computer in clean startup:

12) Detach all SATA devices other than the disk drive that has the Windows operating system
(Make sure that the only disk drive that is attached to the computer at the time of the upgrade attempt is the disk drive containing Windows)
(Other disk drives may be able to be detached by disconnecting cables or if necessary to remove the drive from the computer)

13) Make sure that there is no metered connection:  https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17452/windows-metered-internet-connections-faq

14) Consider making a free backup image:
