The upgrade process seems to go on Ok, but, near the end I see this message:

"The drive where Windows is installed is locked. Unlock the drive and try again.

"Errors 0xC1900101-0x20017

"The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation.

Any advice? (I am stuck...)

Try backing up your data, then wipe the system and install W10 "clean"

Be sure that the system was activated previously.

If not, post back BEFORE you do anything.
