Reverting back to Windows 7 still wouldn't resolve my original issue of not being able to update it.  I realize that other OSs won't be supported forever.  The Windows 10 suggestion to upgrade is all over the place, telling you constantly to upgrade.  The inability to upgrade my Win 7 even though there was really no reason why I couldn't suggests to me that maybe Microsoft is forcing us to upgrade by systematically stopping updates prematurely before the end of the OS lifespan to force our hands.

I've read so many articles and forums with people having the same issue with no solutions.  Could Microsoft do that?

The thing that led me to your site, was the inability to update windows.  I had tried everything.  Any scans I attempted I did in safe mode and came up with nothing.  There was nothing anywhere that would let me update Windows.  I tried every suggested to fix or tweak, or reinstall this, or that, nothing worked.  It wasn't that I would get an error, it would just not load and would eventually timeout.  So I decided to try your site. 

I'm running Win 7 Premium.  I followed everything to the letter!  Did the chkdsk /f on restart and it came up with nothing and I did sit and watch, and there were no bad sectors.  When my computer kind of crapped out (very slow, could barely load a web page and very delayed response when I clicked on anything, like task manager, control panel etc.   I ran some more scans in safe mode with other tweaking programs.  I did finally manage to get better speed and response.  I tried again to update windows..nothing, nada, it would not update and felt very much like that's it, computer is done.  I use this desktop for work, I work from home.  Then I did something I'd been avoiding...

I went to Win 10 Update and damnit I did not want it.  I have it on my laptop and hate it.  Anyway, it took the update immediately! I feel like I am being forced to upgrade!

After using your software, my computer is basically unusable!  Nothing loads, everything is so slow I can't even get a browser page up!  I don't know what to do!
