Hi,

I have following error while upgrading from 8.1 to 10. See logs setupact and setuperr attached, which I find in C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther.
I ran SFCFix but no errors found (log attached)

My PC specs are as follows:

No virusscanner running, no peripherals, etc.

Anyone that can help?

Cheers

Hello and welcome,

SFC Scan

1. Right-click the Start button and select Command Prompt (administrator).
2. When command prompt opens, copy and paste the following commands into it, press enter after each.
   
   

   sfc /scannow

   Wait for this to finish before you continue
3. Take a screenshot of the result.
   
   

   copy %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log "%userprofile%\Desktop\cbs.txt"

4. This will create a file, cbs.txt on your Desktop. Please attach this to your next post.
   Note: if the file is too big to upload to your next post please upload via a service such as GoFile.io or One Drive or WeTransfer and just provide the download link.
5. Provide the screenshot also.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your message and help.

After all, I finalized to update to Win 10. It seemed that there was an issue with the installation of the updates during the Win upgrade. I switched off the interconnection and was then able to upgrade.
However, Win 10 tells me now to activate the Windows software, despite the fact that I had a legitime Win 8.1 version.

How can get Win 10 activated?

Best regards,
Nikolas

Hi again,



In the meantime I found the issue why it would not activate.

Thanks for your help. This thread may be closed.
