I clicked on the download button on https://www.tweaking.com/content/page/windows_repair_all_in_one.html. This takes me to Mirror @ MajorGeeks.com. If there is anywhere else I can download this, please let me know.

I downloaded 4.4.7 from MajorGeeks by clicking on link on home page, but when I try to install I am informed it is 4.4.6. What is going on? What am I doing wrong?

I reconnected the Ethernet cable after the upgrade & all was fine.

It was a desktop with no wireless. I simply disconnected the Ethernet cable from the PC.

I have had success! I created the ISO using the media creation tool on my SSD. I then proceeded mount & launch the installation off the ISO. I got the following message after a failed attempt: 0xC1900101 - 0x20004.
This led me to the following link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/10587/windows-10-get-help-with-upgrade-installation-errors
From there I did a clean restart into Windows. (There was link that explained how to perform a clean boot in Windows.)
I tried to upgrade again from the ISO. Failed again. I continued to remove hardware from the PC (first my sound card, then my DVD drives). But the PC continued to hang at about the same point. All I could do after each failure was hard reboot the PC & it would restore back to previous version (1607).
I finally removed my network (Ethernet) connection. Then everything worked.
Thanks for your help. I don't know how many days over the past 6 months I have spent trying to get this upgrade to work.

Hi Boggin,
Thanks for getting back with really useful advice. I did find some driver updates & did install all of them. I disabled Avast virus scanner & Malware bytes & disconnected USB connected devices (as I have done during previous attempts). I then ran the Win10 Upgrade assistant & after first reboot I get the following screen:
Working on updates xx%
Don't turn off your PC. This will take a while
Your PC will restart several times.
Unfortunately the PC hangs when xx reaches 21. This consistently happens every time I try to upgrade.
I can't remember what MS Support did last April. They left me loading an image onto a USB drive to try to install from that. It also failed.
I am about to create an ISO using the media creation tool, burn to a DVD & try from that. But failing that, as asked in my early post, is it safe to try to upgrade to 1703 with my Hard Disk disconnected?

General Computer Support / Cannot Upgrade Windows 10 1607 to 1703

First let me say that without this program I would never have been able to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro from Windows 7 Pro. But that was a long time ago. Notwithstanding passing all the preliminary steps I have one PC (out of 4 PCs) that fails to upgrade from Windows 10 (64 bit) 1607 to 1703. I have tried multiple times. I have had Microsoft Support on line for half a day without success. I can send you the log files to analyze if you tell me what log files to send but I realize this may be too much to ask.
Another alternative I am contemplating is disconnecting all unnecessary hardware (including a second hard disk) except my SSD system disk but I am not sure if this is will cause serious problems if the upgrade is successful. I have a second hard disk on which some programs are installed & I don't know if I will be able to run these programs after the upgrade when I reconnect the hard disk. Any advice will be greatly appreciated?
