@codewiz 64 Gb flash drive cost 12$. Same for DRAM and CPU. IT-resources are cheap and available worldwide.

I'd say that admin's time, interest, skills and other resources are things we all should be grateful for 😍

@codewiz @Maryam Well, I've changed my 3,5-RCA audiowire to fiber bout a week ago - that silent buzzing from metal wires is very annoying. Just plugged in optic, switched input on speakers, Windows 10 found it and it works. I'm lucky I guess 😉

@codewiz Agreed. Unfortunately, there are billions of different old devices, which are used in a serious, professional and dangerous environments, and they all need compatibility. We still have 3,5 audio jacks in modern motherboards 😉

@codewiz You tried to upgrade your system, but it failed, didn't finished. So - it's your old Windows. It's just additionally broken while migrating user data.

Or you've booted already from some installation media? Or, if a computer is a branded notebook, most have a special recovery partition to restore whole PC with a single button and it can be that version.

@codewiz yep, that's it 😀

Looks like Intel Wifi driver crashed, Netwtw06.sys: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/repeated-crashes-due-to-netwtw06sys-failure/36218cc2-eb6c-4807-b422-f7ed11128130

@codewiz But, if there are no installation media or usb flash, you won't be able to change System drive letter, if I remember correctly. You should boot from installation media, click on Additional options on first screen and start command prompt. There enter diskpart and change letter.

@codewiz @Humpleupagus Almost. I've worked in their support long time ago 😆

here's how to use fix commands:

@codewiz @Humpleupagus It's the BCD, Windows bootloader who assigns letters after UEFI. You can try bcdedit from safe mode to fix that. Also there are two useful commands: fixboot and fixmbr.

@Humpleupagus @codewiz well, the easiest way I see - just temporary disconnect another drive, so Windows won't have other options.

@codewiz Sure. Diskpart can reassign letters. Or Acronis DD.

@codewiz Usually Windows Upgrade can be rolled back/ No such option?
