    The Verge[^]:

    Affected PCs weren’t able to upgrade this time, but it’s the second in less than a year that Microsoft has made this mistake.

    Did it include coupons to get a new computer?

      Maybe it is a tacticc of the marketing dept. Let's elephant users out with an update that ends in error, all the people that can't restore easily will get pissed off and they might end buying a new hardware to avoid it failing the next time we have the "mistake".

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

        As if KMS hasn't been turned inside out like a sock many, many times. Why bother with an upgrade when you can have a fresh install for free?

          I'd agree with you if Microsoft didn't have their track record of releasing buggy software :~
