Nothing for me either, and nothing in the update history.

Alllll fails

Use the ESD Decrypt method, it takes 2 minutes to create the ISO and you can begin your installation of Windows Fail sorry I mean Windows 10.

wuauclt.exe /updatenow

Running this as suggested above kick started my Windows updates to commence Downloading Windows 10.

May be a while before I can commence installation not got fibre until 10th August.

Right 100% giving up for this evening. If needs be I will make bootable media tomorrow when I'm home from work or borrow a USB stick from someone to boot from that.

Boom Windows 10. Upgrade has worked fine, but I am going to backup the Windows.Old it created and then 'Reset this PC' without keeping anything. Shouldn't take too long I hope.

Thanks, this is what I've just began to do as I don't have the patience to wait for MS to pull its finger out. Thank god for 8 threads

Check in the "Update History" for a new entry, most likely failed.

Only a couple of entries that have failed, and they are Defender and Definitions update from March/April.

Resetting my install now.

Just so people know, when you reset it asks if you wish to wipe just the OS drive or all drives. Pick whatever you want obviously. Just thought I would share as many have asked.

Updated on Surface Pro fine.
No outstanding driver issues etc
Install ran from ISO of decrypted ESD

Honestly its quick....and the menu

So did you just use the install.esd to IOS and boot off that instead, rather then waiting for dumb windows update?

Just mount the ISO and install from within Windows and the rest is automatic.

I believe he did yes, but I used the dumb download method and I have just 'reset' my PC as new. Took about 10mins.

If you are preloaded and want to instal now -

In the Preload folder in Sources directroy there is a file Install.esd copy this to a new folder.
Download esd decrypter - https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=e8e5cc039d51e3db&id=E8E5CC039D51E3DB!77869
install 7 zip to extract esd decrypter
Extract all the files and put it in the same folder as install.esd
Right click decrypt install as administrator
choose option 1
This will create the windows 10 iso, right click and mount it then run setup.

I did upgade and keep file and installed fine.

Reddit thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/...w_to_create_a_bootable_iso_from_the/?sort=new

I can't find the install.esd, My folder is around 4GB big, this right ?

I manage to solve my problem.

Go to: C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download

Delete everything

Then run this command in start>cmd wuauclt.exe /updatenow

Psyoletic · 29 Jul 2015 at 02:13

Again, even if you're successful and begin to download the 3GB the likely hood when it tries to install it will fail and you're back to square one.

So far the successful installs are using the ESD Decrypt method.

Nothing happens when I do that, other than 4 new files appearing in \SoftwareDistribution\Download.

Where do we get the .esd file from?
