So if that thing happens does mean that you have to download windows 10 again using the media creation tool or it will just install since it has already been download and which folder does the files contain in the system folder. The Media Creation Tool is a pretty neat utility that Microsoft has created to allow any consumer to easily upgrade their computer to Windows 10 or create a medium such as a USB or DVD that they can use to upgrade a different computer to Windows 10. However, the Media Creation Tool is not entirely.

Install Windows 10 v1803 Update with an in-place Upgrade. Another method that usually works, to fix Windows 10 update problems, is to perform a Windows 10 Repair-Upgrade, by using the Media Creation tool to create an ISO or USB Windows 10 install media.

Keep it civil and on topic. Something happenedWindows 10 installation has failedI had this error upgrading from Windows 7 Pro SP1 64-bit.

Here is the fix I came up with which worked for me so I decided to share it here. A few things first:. You obviously will need to sign up for the free Windows 10 upgrade which you should have already done.

You need to be doing all of the following with an Administrator user account. You need to make sure you have enough hard drive space. It varies depending on how much data you have.

A good rule to follow would be having at least 50% of your hard drive free. You have to do an upgrade install so your Windows 7/8/8.1 license gets converted into a Windows 10 license. You must have a valid Windows 7/8/8.1 license and install which should be the case if you were able to sign up for the free Windows 10 upgrade in the first place. If not, your computer is using a generic volume license and you will need to change it to an actual unique license which should be on a sticker on your computer. I am not responsible if this does not work for you and/or you lose data so do a backup.1) Click the START button.2) Type in msconfig into the Search and open it.3) Dot the circle in front of Selective startup.4) Click the Services tab.

Check the Hide all Microsoft Services box. Click Disable all.

Click the Startup tab and do the same if you can (it varies between Windows 7/8/8.1).5) Click APPLY then OK and reboot your computer when prompted. When your computer reboots, do not enable anything if you are asked like antivirus software, etc.6) Make sure you are able to view hidden files.

Delete the C:$Windows.BT folder and there may be others where the BT says WS or something. Delete those as well if they are there.7) Go to and download the Media Creation Tool. More than likely you will want the 64-bit one, but there is a 32-bit option.8) Open the tool and select Create installation media for another PC. Be sure to save the Windows 10 version you choose which must be the correct upgrade for your version of Windows 7/8/8.1 as an.ISO file. Pro/Ultimate = Pro.9) When done, open the.ISO with your CD/DVD Recording software and BURN IT TO A DVD.

Do not mount it as the computer will reboot so the mount will not work.10) In Windows 7, open the DVD and start setup.exe which should take about 30-60 minutes to run. When asked to enter a Windows license, click the Skip button. The current license will later be converted to and activated on Windows 10 automatically.11) Once Windows 10 is all up and going, type msconfig in the search box and open it.12) Check the box in front of Normal startup.13) Click APPLY then OK and reboot your computer when prompted.You HAVE TO DO an UPGRADE install first so your Windows 7/8/8.1 license gets converted to a Windows 10 license. Later if you ever want or need to, you can reinstall Windows 10 doing a clean install by booting the DVD and using your Windows 7/8/8.1 license. Here's the real fix that should work for anyone hitting this issue.

The 'Something happened' is a known issue (with a fix coming) because you have a language pack installed.Options:. Uninstall the language pack and try installing from windows update again. temporarily change the Windows OS region/localization to en-us and then retry the upgrade via Windows Update. use the media installation from and install from removable media.Source: I work on at MSFT on OS Upgrade, but please no personal requests for tech support. I've already got plenty of work to do:-).

I'm going to dig this thread out of it's peaceful retirement. Microsoft error messages infuriate me. In the installation media software for Window 7, 10 and presumably 8.1, some error messages have 'For more information, see the Setup log files' tagged on the end. There is absolutely no indication where these logs are, let alone a link to them.I eventually found on a random blog, not in any Microsoft documentation, that you need to press Shift+F8 to open a Command Prompt window, cd to Z:Windowspanther (WTF?), and finally launch Notepad to view the error log. I just cannot fathom how Microsoft is still profitable when they do shit like this. I believe there are 2 cases 'Something Happened' error, one is the purple screen 'Something Happened, Something Happened' which happens in the installation screen, the other is the 'Something Happened' as the one OP described in his post, which appears in a tiny grey box. The trigger for the purple box 'Something Happened' is due to language but the trigger for the other one I believe is unknown.Edit: Also the one OP describes, I've notice that 'Installing Windows 10' generally stops at 24% for a bit then closes.

Well, after 3 days and dozens of attempted upgrades, I tracked it down to a slightly corrupt BCD. The repair instructions didn't work, but problems backing up the BCD config in the setup log and the fact that BCDedit /export always failed caused me to keep investigating in this area.I eventfully installed Visual BCD and it had a loader listed (dupe of my recovery partition) that when I tried to get info on, crashed the app.

Thankfully Visual BCD let me remove it.Once I'd done that, the upgrade worked a treat.

Windows Installation Media Tool Fail

I am trying to use the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool to create a bootable USB flash drive but am getting an error message. It seems download the files successfully but fails part way through transferring the files to the USB drive.The error message code I get is 'Something went wrong. 0x80070456 - 0xA0019'The steps I take are. Run the program.

Accept the license conditions. Choose 'Create installation media for another PC'. Language 'English (United States)', Edition 'Windows 10', Architecture '64-bit (x64)'. Choose 'USB flash drive'. Choose the USB flash drive from the listI am running Windows 10 Professional. The USB drive is 64Gb. @user541905 I used and it works - with GPT.

Turns out my 3 year old expensive Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook is broken for good, despite all (lengthy) hardware tests telling me that everything is okay. New installations of both Ubuntu Linux as well as of Windows 10 all sooner or later end in crash after crash (at different places) soon after installation.

Tip: ALWAYS buy with at least 3 years of hardware support or if such a thing happens to you you have to throw it into the garbage bin after warranty ends and something breaks. Lesson learned.–Oct 24 '17 at 16:38.
