Windows 7,8,10 Upgrade Script 2.5.0

Hi, can you please guide where to set UNC paths in script?

@Farhan Khalid Thanks for the suggestion. You are right, I didn't do a good job of directing users where to change that. It's a location based EDF. If you double click on a location(not a client), then go to the Info tab, then TNE Setup, there's an EDF there to be updated.

Thank you, i found  solution. I got error on one system script failed due to pending windows updates therefore i need a script which fulfil pre-requisites before upgrading to windows 10.

Hi, Happy new year!!!

Can you please guide me if we can modify and  download windows 10 ISO directly from internet by providing web link in script instead of downloading from LTShare or UNC path.
 

Line 31 would need to be modified. Instead of being "File Download" it needs to be "File Download URL".

I get an error when opening the script "Error loading script:Syntax error: Missing operand after 'd259' operator.". I also can only see the first 17 lines of the script.

What does your line 17 look like? That's an EDF reference, so if the EDF didn't import properly, I could see how it would cause problems.

Interestingly, we had an unrelated issue a while later which caused us to reboot the Automate server. I just checked the script again and see what appears to be the full 110 lines of the script with no error. The reboot must have done the trick. Now to see if I can get some machines on 1903!

Oh, it could have been that you needed to do a Reload System Cache. Basically your computer didn't know about the EDF, but the server did. Restarting the server caused you to restart your client which forced a cache reload.

I get a weird error when trying to upgrade Windows 7 SP1 to Windows 10 1903. I've attached two screenshots of the errors. The first one comes, as a BSOD when approaching around 90% in the Working on Updates part of the installation. Afterwards, it reverts to Windows 7, and upon logging in, it comes with the second attached screenshot...

Any ideas of what's wrong? I've tried a gazillion things... *SIGH*

It says "Critical Process Died"

Here it says: 0xC1900101 - 0x4000D
Installation failed in the SECOND_BOOT Phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operations.

Have tried everything from SFC /SCANNOW to uninstalling and/or updating drivers/software/windows updates etc... I cannot fathom why this happens... 

Any ideas would be welcome. 

Thanks in advance! 

I'm not sure. I've never seen that before. It is possible there is a problem with the harddrive, since it is failing at the data migration stage. Perhaps some data it cannot read?

We have seen multiple Windows 7 > Windows 10 upgrades fail due to hardware and/or drivers. Try updating or removing all device drivers. This includes Intel drivers, which have been most of our issue. We also had one machine that would fail every time while the wireless card was installed. It completed without issue once the wireless card and its software was removed.

Thanks for the suggestions.

When you say, removing the wireless card - do you mean, open the laptop up, and removing it, or 'just' disabling it from the BIOS?

I'll give the suggestions a try and report back - thanks.

In the case of the wireless adapter, it was a desktop with a USB connected wireless adapter. I don't remember the model but it did explicitly claim support for Windows 10 and had the latest driver and software installed. We never could do the upgrade with it plugged in. We eventually had to unplug it and uninstall all of its software to complete the upgrade.

First off let me say thanks to those that worked on this script and also special thanks to @danialbulloch for assisting me today. 

My issue was the file 7z.exe I mistakenly used the downloaded installer and not the 7z.exe that is in place after the installation.  If you do it this way you may get an exit code "Command results: WARNING: Unknown exit code. (Code: 0x)".... this also shows nicely in the email alert.

Testing with the corrections so that I can be another confirmed installation success.  Update to follow.

I have to say I have very good results from this script, we don't upgrade Windows 7 systems with it only WINDOWS 10. I use Sharepoint to host the file for users that can't reach a DC. I create a cache folder on \\blah.local\NETLOGON\cache and copy the latest ISO there so everyone has access and add the \\blah.local to the Extra 1 field. Mad props to the creators of this has saved me soooo much time.

Hell0 - I've been running the script for a while now with no issues. Recently I'm coming across the following error code and I haven't found a resolution. Anyone have any suggestions? The media for the upgrade is copied from the local file server to the PC temp folder and then I get this message. Then an hour later I'm notified the upgrade didn't go through.

The results for the upgrade are as follows:
Script kicked off the install, so far so good. Check command results below for more details and potential issues.
Command results: WARNING: Unknown exit code. (Code: 0x80070005)

Thanks!
