The motherboard on a PC I use for video editing is failing so I have transferred the SSD to another working system with Windows 11. While I was still able to boot the old system I uninstalled all graphics, sound, chipset and other peripheral drivers and backed up my licence to my Microsoft...

I have posted here to thank you @LesFerch for the information about this issue Windows Explorer on later builds of Win11 and for your excellent Switch Explorer 2.0 tool. I have been tearing my hair out trying to understand why on two clean installs of Win11 on two separate Dell Inspiron 545's...

I did a Win 11 installation on unsupported hardware following advice elsewhere on this forum on a Dell Inspiron Laptop. Under normal circumstances I would do a clean install but there was software on the laptop I needed to retain as I don't have the serial numbers. I now have a running Win 11...

Hi @Megahertz I am assuming you are not using EasyBCD to add the other OS to the boot manager. If you could show me what to do that would be great. Many thanks

Thanks @cereberus Should I set up Win11 SSD as the first boot device in the bios and then install EasyBCD on Win 11 and add Win10 there?

Many thanks @hsehestedt. If I were starting from scratch then I would certainly consider your suggestion. However the OS I want to retain is Windows 10 which is going out of support and the OS has installations of certain software that is no longer available due to the company going out of...

Thanks @Wisewiz for the prompt.

I am seeking advice on the best method to dual boot windows 10 (22h2) and windows 11 (23H2) each on separate SSD's Despite a considerable amount of help from colleagues on this forum to get win 11 installed on unsupported hardware I eventually caved in and did a clean install of Win 11 on...

OK fixed it using Macrium Reflect boot disk USB.

Many thanks @x BlueRobot I really appreciate all your help but unfortunately I no longer have the time to keep trying upgrades so have installed another SSD and successfully done a clean install of Windows 11. As as you suspected it was not a hardware but a software/OS issue. However I now...

Hi @zbook Firstly can I thank you for helping me out. This is a self built machine and was originally configured as a Hackingtosh running OSX Yosemite. When I got a proper Mac I did a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate and then upgraded to Windows 10 when it was offered free. Initially I had...

Hi @zbook OK so ran V2 log before doing anything else and uploaded here I then ran the Avast removal tool and re-ran V2 Log uploaded again here Finally I tried an upgrade again using the method suggested by @Bree which again failed at 91% with same error message as before. I re-ran V2Log after...
