Reader Question:
“Hi Wally, I keep getting the following error when trying to upgrade from windows 8.1 to windows 10: 0xc7700112.” – Michael J., USA
Before addressing any computer issue, I always recommend scanning and repairing any underlying problems affecting your PC health and performance:
- Step 1 : Download PC Repair & Optimizer Tool (WinThruster for Win 10, 8, 7, Vista, XP and 2000 – Microsoft Gold Certified).
- Step 2 : Click “Start Scan” to find Windows registry issues that could be causing PC problems.
- Step 3 : Click “Repair All” to fix all issues.
Setting up weekly (or daily) automatic scans will help prevent system problems and keep your PC running fast and trouble-free.
Wally’s Answer: Windows updates, especially the major ones can cause problems like this when they don’t install correctly. This usually happens because of a computer crash or some other unexpected issue.
Upgrading from one version of Windows to another can be a bit risky because software like anti-virus can interfere with the upgrade process. But usually things work out just. Small errors like this can be with a little effort.
