Tried to update Win10 Creators update... until 74%
« on: April 11, 2017, 10:54:39 AM »

I used the windows update and that directed me to the windows 10 upgrade assistant. The update seems to be going well, downloads it, verifies it, and starts installing it... until 74% then the window changes back to "We see your running an older version of windows.. do you want to upgrade" window, which is the same window when you first load up the upgrade assistant.

The only thing I can think it might be is I have a usb cable from my monitor to the pc to give me usb connections on the monitor. This is the only reason I can think of.

Anyways I'm not rushing it. I'll see if this issue comes up for anyone else.

That is not going to be the issue. Use Disk Cleanup, cleanup system files, and remove any update log files and windows installation files. Do not get rid of previous windows installations however. Then reinstall the upgrade assistant and try it again! That is a possible fix. Cannot be sure though. Both my desktop and laptop had no issues installing the Creators update, even though both are dual booted! (W10 Pro + Fedora 25)

I'll try that tomorrow.

I keep searching for anyone who had problems with the upgrade assistant going back to the first page and I've not seen it anywhere.

It would be more helpful if they even give an error message or something.

Ok I finally got it updated.

I pressed Windows Update and about 3 updates came down for the then current version of windows. I installed them and now it give me the option to upgrade windows through the windows update. So I did.

It stopped at the installing bit but this time there is a fixing windows screen that opens up and it scanned the computer for programs.

The program holding everything up was an old version of Glyph ! TrionWorld's game launcher. It wanted me to uninstall it but then my games I have from that probably wouldnt work. So I X'ed out of the box. Loaded up Glyph and it updated itself. As it did I was reading the trionworlds forum saying the new version was Windows Creator compatable.

So I went back to Windows Update and pressed the Fix button that was now there. It again scanned for programs and this time it passed and upgraded windows. It's amazing how a small program can cause problems lol
