Launching from the command line also fails. This is the error I'm seeing in the Event Viewer.

Windows Store is now working, but not PC Settings or Windows Update.

>>P.S. is Win 10 any good? do I want it? should I be upgrading my laptop to it in the middle of exam revision?

I guess that was a no.

We have 6 PCs waiting for an update. 5 of them failed to update with Windows error 80240020 (which a lot of people are reporting on t'interweb). My daughter's Windows 8.1 laptop updated without any problems.

I followed some suggestions to delete the update files from Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloads and restart the update from an Admin started cmd prompt with wuauclt.exe/updatenow

The Windows 7 PCs updated OK. The Windows 8.1 ones have failed so far.

Just done a reset install, and it's still fucked. But now with the added benefit that it's also remove almost every third party application I had installed, despite being told not to :@

I finally got done! It was RIDICULOUS. My Windows install was so badly fucked by the enforced motherboard swap that I couldn't even use a USB drive. This made it really hard to fix! I had to download the Win 8 ISO using the Windows tool, copy it to my NAS, copy it to my Macbook Pro, use Unetbootin to make a bootable USB from it, boot the PC with that, install that, then install Windows 10 finally. Yeesh it took a long time.

All seems to be running well so far, though I've not tested much in the way of applications properly I will admit. First impressions are that it's "quite nice" so they can put that on the poster if they like.

My motherboard isn't fucked, but i'm having to download the ISO and make a USB stick and do a fresh install to solve my issues. Didn't want to do that originally as I wanted to keep all my apps etc., but as the refresh install nuked them anyway then why the fuck not? My data is all seperate from my windows (and safe, or at least it was till my dropbox account ran out of space...).

Just for giggles, I've attached the file that refresh installer left on my desktop to handily let me know what it'd removed.

Arrrrgghghghgh! Seems my laptop battery is fucked, as it just turned off stone dead with 62% supposedly remaining. 

I was running the media creation tool at the time, about 60% into downloading the iso to make a bootable USB stick.  The tool now won't run, presumably because there's a bunch of temp data confusing it, but I can't find where it's stored it.

Now I can't even download your ISO link, it's giving a 403 error.

Yeah that link looks dead.

I'm currently putting it on my dedicated server if you can wait about 30 mins.

Got the media creation tool to load by running as administrator. Set it to make a USB stick, left it and came back to a 'Something happened' error screen. Don't know if that's because I didn't touch it and the screen went off/possibly to sleep. Running it again now, but if it fails again I'll happily grab it off your server!

How do you make the ISO into a bootable USB stick? I vaguely remember doing it with windows 8, but not how I did it :$

I think the Milky one used unetbootin.

I think even using win32 image writer would work too.

He also said he did it on Mac, so I ignored everything he said and just admired his single-geared bike, beard and dog-eared Jean Paul Sartre book.
