Windows 10 pro version 10.0 (build 10240) Update

Hi WA4,

10240, is the first version of Windows 10 released, it is really old and that could be he cause of this happening.

Honestly to go from 10240 to 1083, your best option would be to backup your data and clean insttall 1803.

I know this would be a bigger job, but I don't think you will be able to successfully upgrade from 10240, dues to the age of that version . . .

I recommend you perform an offline upgrade using the ISO. I have upgraded 1507 to 1803 and it works.

Instead of using the Media Creation Tool to upgrade, download the ISO file first.

Please be advised some users are reporting issues with the Windows 10 1803 update. Make sure you backup before attempting to upgrade:

Downloading the ISO file

An ISO file is a digital or virtual replica of a physical disc. In order to use an ISO you must burn it to a optical disc. In the case of Windows 10, a blank Dual Layer DVD or an empty USB thumb drive. If you are using Windows 7, you can create the .ISO then burn it using the built in Disc Image utility. If you are running Windows XP or Windows Vista, you can using a third party burning tool such as ImgBurn or Roxio/Nero.

Hi,

As the upgrade logs are pretty different from the current ones, it is not worth to see the logs.
