"Failed to create WinPE rollback directory" upgrading virtual guest from Win7 to W10
I am trying to upgrade a Virtualbox virtual machine guest from Win7 SP1 to Win10 using the Media Creation tool/iso. Amongst many other things, I have stripped down drivers/devices, removed non-present devices and ran removal tools for Acronis and Kaspersky. Not sure if Macrium has a remove tool.
I have tried to reinstall windows 7 keeping programs but this stalls at gathering settings etc. Windows 10 upgrade reverts to previous version at about 25%.
Win10 upgrade Setuperr.log in the Rollback folder says only:
