I have a PC Pavilion Elite HPE 450 t, and a few months ago he ceased to accept automatic updates from Microsoft downloads.
I tried to use the tools that Microsoft has nothing helped.
Some time after, my Norton Security software security suite failed and wouldn't charge. Norton failed to find a solution. I guess it must do something with the heavy backlog of unloaded updates.
? Is it possible to load windows 10 on win 7?
I got my PC tested for viruses, root kits and it is clean, but updates are still not loading.
Honestly, I'd appreciate any help that you folk can provide. Thanks in advance

Hi there @LROSZKOW,
I hope you find your experience of positive Support Forum! It's a good place to find the help you need, other users, the HP experts and other members of the support staff. I understand that you have had problems with the updates of Windows and want to know if you can upgrade to Windows 10. I'm happy to help you with this.
Reading the questions you have described in your current system that you cannot upgrade to Windows 10, using the normal method of free upgrade. Your system should have the option available from a previous update of Windows, as the free update is delivered via Windows update. If you have a Windows 7 or 8.1 product key, then you could do a clean install of Windows 10 and use this key to activate your Windows 10 free documents. Of course, you want to first make a backup of your data.
Another option would be to try to load the original image from the desktop computer, and then try to update again by using Windows Update. This assumes you have a working recovery partition or recovery media. Computers HP - performing a recovery of system HP (Windows 7) But to protect your data, you want to make a first backup as I mentioned.
Please let me know if it works for you and if it does not solve your problem, please mark this message as a solution. Bravo would be appreciated as well.
