First, let me say how impressed I am with the advice I've seen on this forum. I've already made a small donation and anticipate making at least one more.
I have been attempting to update my venerable Win-7 pro system to Win-10 pro in anticipation of the 14-January sunset date. I've been stuck at the same error since last Friday. The updater runs and all seems well until I get about 30% of the way through the Win-10 migration phase (I think that's what it's doing). At that point, the system reboots and says it is undoing its changes. It reboots to Win-7 pro. I then have to reboot it one more time to turn the sound card back on. On the second boot, it shows a complaint that says:
Sadly, I found this forum after several days of failed attempts to get past this issue. I followed the recipe provided in your tutorial and attached the resulting CBS.zip. There is some chance that some of the corruption it found is the result of my own failed attempts to clean up the system. I have backups (created by Acronis TrueImage) if those will help.
In case it might help, I have attached "setupact.log", the summary log from Panther (the windows update tool) and "SetupDiagResults.log", the sumamry log from SetupDiag.exe (the Microsoft tool that helps diagnose issues). I have the details of each, but I haven't uploaded them because they are quite large.
When I started all this, the complaint in "setupact.log" was a failure attempting to migrate "Comodo Internet Security" (cmdagent.exe). This was detritus from removing Comodo AV years ago. I've been using MalwareBytes premium for some time now. Since the path to that executable didn't exist, I wasn't surprised that it failed. I spent days attempting to find and remove references to Comodo from the registry, file system, and so on. None of those attempts had any effect at all until late yesterday.
The last change I made -- using "FRST64.exe", which I found here -- finally removed the "Comodo" complaints. Unfortunately, the upgrade still fails in the same place. As you can see from the two log files, it now correctly identifies MalwareBytes as my AV. The path that it is attempting to migrate exists, and so something else is causing this failure.
That's about all I can think of to help get you started.
Thanks in advance for your help!
