As I have a past, and possible future, need for the XP virtual machine in Win7Pro, I devised a plan. I cloned my boot
drive and swapped the clone in (to make sure it works.) Not a bad thing to do anyway, as the drive has been a Samsung
EVO 840 500G, that now has several years heavy use, and the clone, with only a few hours on it while cloning for backup
is a Samsung Pro 850 512G.
I'll then need another B-U/clone drive, which is not big deal. If I need the XP
machine, I can just swap in the old drive.
I have now tried updating to Win10 4-5 times, always failing with the error message "0x8007042B - 0x2000D The
installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation"
There are several solutions proposed, by MS and others, none of which have as
yet succeeded.
I sure don't want to do a clean, new install. Sooooo much stuff to reinstall .
