I want to upgrade windows 7 Home Premium to windows 10. The upgrade icon (GWX.exe) appears normally but when i open the app nothing appears in the window instead of the loading circle. It keeps rotating but the "reserve windows 10" thing doesn't appear. I can't find the solution anywhere on the internet.

    If you reserved Windows 10 before July 29th, you can run the following commmand wuauclt.exe /updatenow in an elevated command prompt, to manually trigger the download process. You can also download the .ISO and select the "Upgrade Now" option and bypass the Get Windows 10 application entirely. – Ramhound Aug 05 '15 at 13:44
  • I used the iso file. I suggest you write that as an answer so i can approve it. Thank you very much. – onlyforthis Aug 05 '15 at 22:00
  • There are already multiple questions with that answer. I prefer to keep my answers stuff that has not been answered several times already. – Ramhound Aug 05 '15 at 22:12

I simply downloaded the official windows 10 iso file and upgraded my device. You can download it from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10ISO

You can use The Windows 10 Upgrade Tool to upgrade to Windows 10, best part is, all you have to do is click Upgrade this PC and Windows will upgrade you. No hassle of knowing what to do with an ISO.

Otherwise, if you want an ISO, you can get it from here. Just mount and run setup.exe and Windows will ask you what you want to do, and you're away.
