At first glance this appears to not be relevant to this particular board, but in trying to trace down that problem I've been led to fix windows update first and foremost. Please note that as far as I'm aware Windows Update DOES function correctly at this time and my system claims to be up to date. I am currently left with 6 SUR errors related to avast somehow. You'll see the log files anyways.
Some background: I own a legal key to Windows 7 Pro x64. A friend of mine suggested that since Windows 7 is out of Microsoft's product cycle that I could upgrade it to Ultimate with little risk, and provided me with "his Ultimate anytime upgrade key" that he claimed to have purchased and that was valid since he uses 10 now. It turned out to be a prank (stupid me), and one of the generic online keys you can find. The stupid thing is that Windows allowed me to do the upgrade but it knew that the key was invalid. So everything seemed kosher for a month and now Windows has tried to activate and it is telling me that I'm pirating software. Great. So I want to go back to my Pro key but there is no official path to do so according to Microsoft without a clean install. My goal is to downgrade to Home Premium (The only disk I have), use an illegal key to anytime upgrade to Professional, then switch back to my legal key, stuck on the bottom of my laptop (Panasonic CF-53S). I have managed to fool Windows into allowing the downgrade to happen and removed all of the incompatible drivers I'm aware of and iTunes but for some reason when it is migrating my settings back to the new install it fails at 62% with the following in the log error file every single time, no matter what I do (I have attached that log file in case any of the other noncritical driver errors may be relevant to diagnoses, but not the full log unless someone would like to see it):
2018-02-24 01:32:44, Error [0x08038d] MIG Failure while calling IPostApply->ApplySuccess for Plugin={ServerPath="%windir%\system32\Migration\netiomig.dll", CLSID={ea51459a-a30d-4a33-b294-0e0163551c75}, ThreadingModel=Apartment}. Error: 0x80070490
I have done every imaginable step from uninstalling Avast and running in reduced startup mode, to sfc and SURT. They both have found and fixed errors (chkdsk came up empty), but the SUR log is left with 6 persistent Avast-related issues (CSI C Mark Deployment Not Marked) that it can't fix automatically. And now I am here. I would like to note that I am like a level 10 *nix superuser and only like a level 1 windows poweruser. I am savvy with much of the O/S and can jump through some of the hoops but not nearly as much so as you all. I really appreciate any help you may provide. Thank you in advance.
