Posted October 27, 201212 yr FPCH Admin Posted on Everything Microsoft - Latest Microsoft News, Guides, Reviews & Themes Microsoft have made several improvements to the Windows 8 Upgrade process, in an attempt to make it as simple as possible. Below you can see the screenshots I took when I upgraded my main Windows 7 Professional based machine to Windows 8 Pro. Overall my upgrade experience was fairly painless although I had two problems, one of which could have been quite painful: (i) when I tried to upgrade within Windows 7, it allowed me to download the new Windows 8 Pro files, and then told me I didn’t have the necessary 20GB free rather than upfront (ii) I think the failed upgrade above somehow screwed up my HDD and it wasn’t detected in the upgrade process. To fix I had to put my HDD in another machine to fix, which meant wiping the disk. This would have been a disaster if I didn’t have a backup of all my files.
