PERFORMANCE ACTIVITY IN UPDATING WINDOWS 10

HOW TO MANUALLY UPDATE TO WINDOWS 10


Here are the few steps to manually update your laptop, desktop or table
computer to Windows 10 updates.

STEP 1: BACK UP ANY IMPORTANT FILES AND DATA


 In case an error occurs throughout the upgrade process, retain a copy of
any important data that’s on the computer. Having a backup plan set
before you upgrade will eliminate stress if you do happen to lose any
data, as you’ll be able to restore from your backup-thus, not really losing
anything important at all.

STEP 2: DOWNLOAD THE WINDOWS 10 MEDIA


CREATION TOOL
 Go to the microsoft.com/windows 10, click Download tool now, and
save the tool to your computer. The button is right under the “Create
Windows 10 installation media” header.

STEP 3: OPEN THE MEDIA CREATION TOOL


 Run/launch the exe file you just downloaded. Confirm the User
Account Control window if prompted. Select Yes from the pop up
window. You might need to enter the password to an admin account.
STEP 4: WAIT AS THE TOOL OPENS
 The windows logo surrounded by a rectangular purple background will
appear for about five seconds. Afterwards, the tool will load.

STEP 5: READ AND ACCEPT THE LEGAL


AGREEMENT TO CONTINUE.
 Browse the legal conditions provided and click the Accept button to
continue with the upgrade process.

STEP 6: WAIT FOR THE NEXT PART TO LOAD


 You’ll view a message reading “Getting a few things ready”
accompanying circular ajax loader circling right underneath.
This should be swift.

STEP 7: CHOOSE TO UPGRADE YOUR PC


 You’ll be brought to the next page that asks you if you want to upgrade
or create installation media. Click the radio button alongside
“Upgrade this PC now”, which is the selection at the top.

STEP 8: CONTINUE TO BEGIN THE UPGRADE


PROCESS
 Click the Next button at the bottom-right to begin downloading
Windows 10 on your device.

STEP 9: WAIT AS WINDOWS 10 IS DOWNLOADED


ONTO YOUR DEVICE
 This time this part takes is variable since Windows 10 is multiple
gigabytes big, but if your internet speed is high, then it shouldn’t take
too long as Windows 10 will be downloaded faster.

STEP 10: CHANGE WHAT TO KEEP (OPTIONAL)


 Click “Change what to keep” below the list of what’s being kept
(saved). By default, all of your apps compatible with Windows 10 and
your personal files will be moved over to Windows 10.
Here’s a list where you can choose what’s to keep and remove.
 Keep personal files and apps: Keeps all your personal files and apps
that are compatible with Windows 10.
 Keep personal files only: Keeps all your personal files but removes all
apps from your computer.
 Nothing: Removes everything from your computer.

STEP 11: INITIATE THE INSTALLATION


 Click Install at the bottom-right. Windows 10 will install on your
computer. Your PC may restart a few times, and this process can take up
to a few hours. Ensure your PC has a continuous supply power(laptops
and tablets should be plugged in), otherwise, your whole hard drive
might get corrupted if it loses power. Once the upgrade completes,
you’ll be brought to the Windows 10 OOBE(Out-of-the-box-
experience). You’ll be able to configure your computer’s settings.
THAT IS HOW YOU MANUALLY UPDATE TO WINDOWS 10.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED!!!
