Mine started downloading at 12:29 on my laptop.

Microsoft's largest OS release in history, so yeah. Internet is overloaded.

I would much rather have it in DVD format and paid 10-20 bucks for it

Hi.
I had the same error on my Surface 3. I changed the Windows Update settings to Automatically Update and that seemed to fix it. It had failed 4 times today trying to update to Windows 10 until I made the change. I'm not sure if that was the fix or if it was coincidence.
:smile:

Wow, I think the insider page is gonna do the trick. I did the ***** thing of the day today -- I had the entire BT folder early in the day and then I ran ccleaner afterwards and ccleaner totally updated the BT folder, lol.

Earlier in the day the BT folder was about 6 gig and the one just downloaded is about 6 gigs. And I am getting the "we are getting things ready..." message after a download and verify

Update -- just accepted the license page. I can't believe one can just go to windows insider page and it downloaded really quick. Broke the internet??? Sounds like a click bait article to me.

Update -- Says checking for updates 16% thorugh....

My laptop has now gone to a black screen after the media creation tool said it was looking for updates. Hoping this is a minor thing. Not going to touch it for a while and just see what happens.

Like I already posted, these steps got Windows 10 to start properly installing for me:

What this error means is, your Windows 10 installation folder is unfinished and/or corrupted. Now, how do you fix that?
1. Go into "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download" and delete everything in that folder.
2. Now, run the command prompt as an administrator. Type in "wuauclt.exe /updatenow".
3. Go to your Control Panel > Windows Update and your Windows 10 should start re-downloading from scratch, hopefully without flaws this time

Crossing my fingers that doesn't happen here. I'm at 13% pulling updates.

 

[Musicman247]

I was at 22%

 

[coolbreeze78]

T440s: 58%
SP3: 18%
Dell Tower: 31%
Stream 7: 16%

All started at the same time. My wife wants to know WTF I'm doing in my office still, lol.

I am at 75% checking for updates. Black screen for me usually means it's doing it's thing...

Why do I have no problems with SP2 but my desktop wont budge, says "no updates available" and when I check history it lists "Windows 10 Pro Failed" 5 or 6 times over.
