Over to Microsoft (UK) then

yes downloaded fresh tool - tried running as admin - running without saving, saving, copying file onto desktop - always the same error can only think somehow I am download a duff file.......but...

trying on 3 laptops - getting the same error on all of them

thanks guys but none of the above worked.
I can't even get it to run on a different computer - is it possible the problem is at microsofts end ?

Im getting an error when I try to run the media creation tool - Ive run it before without issues on the same PC but I am now unable to use it all ?

I have an older laptop which was given to me. It started out life as XP ! - but it now has windows 10 and was running quite happily until the creators update trickled down. I have tried everything to...

Well the drive was 2tb - I now I can only see system files relating the bootable windows 10 that I actually created - if the whole drive hasn't been formatted how do I recover \ see my files

OK - Have downloaded from that link - I don't see any options to unformat - just file recovery and that is limited amount of data. Any other suggestions anyone ?

Also the error occurred when I was...

What is the best and cheapest software to recover files from a formatted usb hard drive (WD Elements)

ahhhh - problem solved. Duff usb stick - used another it found and is now being detected.

I used the Microsoft tool to create the usb.

There is no bios password. It just there doesn't seem a way of changing settings in the security section of the BIOS.

I have an ACER es13 (Model ES1-332-C4H1)

I have tried to do a reset but if fails saying "There was a problem resetting PC"

So I created a bootable USB win 10 64 - I can't get it to boot from...

glad you sorted it.
I wouldn't say its the obvious thing to do. I like to upgrade from a fresh install - so doing a load of updates then upgrading doesn't seem logical to me.....hey ho ..i suppose !

Many thanks NavyLCDr - you are a lifesaver - that update kicked in - a moment before it was due to go out the window !

to anyone else - just note that KB3201845 is a hefty update 75omb - so wait...

woo hooo - finally cracked it !!!! - more or less what Navy says - clean install - no web connection until it boots to desktop - then go to windows update - bear in mind that kb3201845 is a whopper...

many thanks you are quite correct. it is the 14393 version. Ive reinstalled win 10 64 from usb - however the update kb3201845 appears to be the problem now - this downloads but just sticks on...

im having the exact same issue. ive even done a clean install on win 10 64 - which has gone ok - but the updates are sticking. KB3201845 Seems to be the issue

So if I do the whole thing again - Via MCT - then I have win 10 with the anniversary update ?

nope I did the whole lot from fresh - so from what you are saying I had the anniversary update ?

By then why was 1607 update still available for download !

I didn't get a choice ? - I downloaded win 10 64 bit via the media creation tool .

I then ran windows update - and it told me update 1607 was available (which I thought was the anniversary...

OK -Put a new hard drive in - installed win 10 64 bit from a usb stick - no problem at all. Tried to update to anniversary edition - updates stuck at 82%
tried to do an inplaced upgrade using the...

Yes but I will then loose the lenovo recovery partition ?

My Dad gave me his lenovo g50-30 - it wouldn't boot (stuck at the circles !) - He reckoned he had windows 10 running on it very slowly and thing like wifi weren't reliable.

Anyway I did a lenovo...

but wouldn't that require an OS already installed. the old HDD was toast ?
