I've a legal win 8 pro (x64) license for my desktop which I'd migrated to win 8.1 from store when that was released. My PC is dual boot with main / 1st OS being win-10 Pro Insider & legal / 2nd OS being win810.
My main SSD is Samsung 500 GB on which I've installed 10586 build of win-10 (via .ISO file) about 1 week ago. This is as I'm a Windows Insider & I do all my testing / work on this SSD only. On the 2nd SSD (256 GB Plextor) is my legal win 810 (which indicates that 8.1 migrated to 10). When win-10 was released I migrated win 8.1 Pro using media creation tool to migrate this PC to win-10 Pro. The build here was 10240 & I use this windows only in exigencies / some times.
Just with the idea of updating the win-10 on 2nd SSD, I tried installing build 10586 (.ISO on DVD) onto this SSD so that build 10240 would get updated to 10586 but I faced errors & could not update it at all. On the "Updating windows" screen it would Hang-up at 23% & no option but to reset the PC at that point. Keyboard / mouse nothing works & I tried this twice but without success. Next I tried out updating this win-10 (10240) to build 10565 (again .ISO on DVD) & fortunately that worked without any probs.
In case anyone has faced similar probs & what is the solution pls revert to me in the matter.
Presently 2nd SSD has build 10565. I will again try updating 10565 to 10586 but dont know if it will work smoothly / without any probs??
Hope to hear from someone with a solution ASAP. Thanks in advance
