Getting the last of free Win10 upgrades done. One laptop left to do.
MS seems to have broken their latest upgrade installer, it requires you to copy a file wimgapi.dll from c:\windows\System32 on Windows 7 machine to c:\WIndows10Upgrade folder on windows 7 machine. -

@dbeato Have you looked at what qualifies as Assistive Tech?
Anybody using a computer(basically) qualifies. -

Last I looked it said the following:
"If you use assistive technology on Windows, you are eligible for the upgrade offer", So the question is, what does that mean?
-
I will just say that Keyboard Shortcuts are Assistive Tech according to MS.

Here is the list

Try to find a computer that does not qualify. They made this list on purpose I believe to get the most people on Win10 as possible after their first freebie offering. I mean, they include things like changing font sizes as Assistive Tech. -

That was the point. They want everyone on Win 10

You don't need to - you can ask Scott - plus there are many pages of this discussion from the past year.

Yet they wanted the stupid stock holders to think they killed the free upgrade.
But they (MS) have killed the free upgrade for assistive tech at the end of the year.

Hope they get everyone better quick!

@travisdh1 As do I. What started as minor foot pain is spread and worsened in 12 hours. Methinks it’s prudent to be evaluated.
