Can't Get Windows 10 Back

[Eddie_Paul_Litz]

I can’t reinstall Window 10 anymore. It always make 1 additional partition installs then runs into an Error saying something about a corrupted installation file then stops the installation. That also happens w/ Insider Preview Builds. Now I’m stuck using Ubuntu. How do I fix this?

[Samuria]

The best bet is to delete all partitions so windows can create what it need use the latest dvd from Download Windows 10

I even tried that & that didn’t work either.

Have you checked the drive for errors to make sure it not the problem? Is there a more exact error

[Eddie_Paul_Litz]

I’ve been looking for ways to check how to do that in Ubuntu but what they said to try, I don’t have.

is the clue in the error message?
you say it mentions something about a corrupted installation file, so while that could be a flaky drive, it could also be the ISO file or installation medium you are using.
have you used the Media Creation Tool and redone a new ISO or DVD or USB boot stick with the latest Win10?

[Eddie_Paul_Litz]

I’ve Tried the Media Creation tool, ISO, & USB and they all run into the Error message.

[Bruce]

clutching straws now…
maybe a screen shot of the error may help.

[Eddie_Paul_Litz]

I can’t really take a screen shot during Windows Installation but I can use a different device (ex. 3DS Camera) to get the screen shot. I’ll try it later on.

Somehow I was able to get Windows 10 back but I i’m not sure what caused the problem to keep Win10 from installing though.

hell, a win is a win, take them when you can!
admittedly, it would have been nice to know what is was and the solution, but that’s computers for you.

Computers sometimes just want to do there own thing & not think about the PC user. I’m guessing that’s what mine was doing.:ROFLMAO:

Yes, I did get Windows 10 back. I’m just not sure what caused the problem but @ least I’m back on Win10.
