  • In this video, I go through the entire process, step by step, that allows you to upgrade your operating system from Windows 8 to Windows 10 by yourself, for free! There is not product key required!
    Here is the link to the Windows 10 Download: www.microsoft.com/software-do...
    INSTALLATION FAILED: I’m seeing a lot of comments about failed installations. Someone recently discovered a solution: download the install files to a flash drive instead of the hard drive and boot from there during the process. Just make sure you flash drive is empty (you will lose anything already on there) and has more than 10GB of space (try a 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB flash drive).
    NOTE: whatever architecture you currently have, whether it be 32 bit or 64 bit, will remain after you upgrade. If you are looking to switch from 32 bit to 64 bit, this is not how that is done.
    PRODUCT KEY: Originally, Windows would use your existing product key and register your new version of Windows once you log on and connect to the internet. You did not need to obtain your existing key or purchase a new one. That still seems to work for some people, but others are required to put in a product key before they’re allowed to continue. Please read the pinned comment in the comment section below for more details if that is your situation.

    FINDING YOUR PRODUCT KEY: I am receiving more on more comments regarding issues with the product keys, mostly in regards to Windows not allowing the upgrade to continue because the product key was not entered. This is new, and used to be able to be skipped, but I believe Microsoft may be trying to crack down on pirated copies of windows with potentially fake product keys. Here is a YT video I found regarding a software program called WinKeyFinder175 that locates your product key: ua-cam.com/video/tgHGe_I1OZM/v-deo.html. NOTE: I am only making the claim that this works if you have a valid product key for windows that you purchased, so I can make no claim that this works for pirated or otherwise illegally downloaded versions of windows.
    FREEZING AT 46% FIX: I understand that alot of people go through this, and you have to end a certain update process that windows loops on. Here is a fix I found when others were commenting about the same issue, look at the first reply post at the link below: tinyurl.com/y5nc4u34
    If you want to try something easier first, I have heard from comments that simply closing the updates window, restarting Windows, and then starting the process again allows you to get past the 46% freeze. This hasn't worked for everyone, though!
    Link to the location to download the Windows Media Creation Tool:
    www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
    THE SAMSUNG MONITOR SWITCH AT THE END: Here is the reason for the computer screen switch in the video, and I am going to be completely honest: my little laptop with a 26GB SSD would not take the whole update, and kept reverting back to Windows 8, no matter how many times I tried. So, what I did was boot my desktop, on which I previously did the exact same conversion, and recorded the Windows 10 startup logo moments. This screen is what all Windows 10 boot screens look like, even for the initial startup. I wanted everyone to see that visual to know that this is what would be presented to them when they successfully upgraded. I would not have put this video up if I was not able to successfully make it work at least once. With enough free hard drive space, the majority of the comments demonstrate that this had worked for the majority of those who try it.

      That’s strange. I have not come across that. Try checking for updates on your version of Windows eight and then restarting your computer and attempting the download again.

    Pleased to say that my upgrade ran smoothly the whole way through. The old PC I upgraded has a 4 core i5 chip, and 6Gb RAM which may or may not be relevant. We’re lucky enough to have a fast 36Mb/sec broadband connection and the whole process took a painless 2 hours. No programmes or files or photos were lost in the process. I placed my iPad in front of the PC and watched a UA-cam video whilst keeping an eye on the upgrade. I did have to ask it to download my printer driver, which it did flawlessly. Thank you TT for posting the information.

    first of all I would like to thank you for sharing such a great and helpful Video, it very easy to follow the instructions!
    requirements downloaded and installed, but at the end of the process received a message from my laptop that the installation failed, the question is if I download the install files to a flash drive instead of the hard drive and boot from there during the process do I still need a product key? And the second question is do I lose my files which are in my computer and should I transfer them to an external drive before the installation from the Memory stick?
    Have a great day

    Tutor Terrific, thank you for the tutorial! I had a successful upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. Like so many I was stuck at 46% for 45mins to 1 hour. But just be patience. Then I have to leave it overnight for Windows 10 set-up. I 'm not sure how long it took. because it's was late and I went to bed. The next day when I woke up and check my computer, it's already complete with the Windows 10!

    This is the best video I have seen on how to do this upgrade. I upgraded from Windows 7 to 10 on an older laptop (Dell 4200) with no problems. This is the only video where I learned that I already have a product code as Microsoft uses your existing license. EBAY is full of ads for a Windows 10 upgrade product code. I purchased one for another computer and followed the process provided by the vendor. It corrupted my SD drive and I lost all my data. Had to replace the drive. Thank you for putting up this excellent video.

    When I’m at the last part where it says “pc may restart several times” it says restarting pc now but instead it shuts the pc down and when I turn it back on it loading and says “undoing changed made to your computer”
    Also it always gives me the option to update and it never works because it either shuts down or fails to finish update so I tried this and the pc shuts down instead of restarting (also there isn’t a ‘restart’ option there’s only a ‘restart and update’ option)

      Are you currently using Windows 8 or Windows 8.1? Do you have an active version with a legitimate product key for Microsoft? It really seems like there’s something wrong with your current version of Windows, since when it tries to apply any updates, not just this one, it shuts down.

      @TutorTerrific  4 роки тому

      I only heard about that issue from him, I’m not sure if Nuix still has a problem because he didn’t reply to me. One of the reasons it reverts back is if you don’t have enough storage space. While it only needs 8 GB free, I would have at least 15 GB free as a buffer.
