Introduction
Microsoft actually needs a hit and it looks that
the latest Windows release could be it. A very
lovely start menu, east translation between
desktop and tablet mode and great multi-tasking
are just a few reasons to get excited. Edge and
Cortana might need a bit of work and some other
users are definitely encouraging teething
troubles. However, it is still early days. There
are some issues you may face while working in
Windows 10. You will get here the most common
errors you may face and also how to fix them
manually.

Most Common Problems and their Solutions
5
Problem 1 Windows installation may terminate
with Something Happened message
In some languages, you may notice that the
message Something Happened with the only option
being CLOSE button. When you click the button
then the installation terminates. This issue has
been noticed when you chose tom create an ISO and
when you are using a burned DVD or even USB to
install Windows 10.
6
However, not official, but the problem is
attributed to Language settings in Windows
operating system. You can check the Language and
Region settings in Control Panel of Windows 7 or
Windows 8.1 that you are upgrading using the ISO
file. This idea being widely used is to
re-download the US English Language pack and
install it on the computer you are trying to
upgrade.
7
Solution One of the best solutions is to
Upgrade This PC option with the use of Windows
10 Media creation tool. The latter option would
remove the requirement to create ISO-based
installation media and it will then do an
in-place upgrade of Windows 10. The in-place
upgrade does not go wrong with the weird
something happened message as per the reports
on social media. You will then require an active
internet connection for every PC you upgrade in
this way.   Or in short, if you perform an
in-place upgrade then it is a better option than
going for ISO files of Windows 10 as of now. The
Something Happened message is quite vague and
it does not tell you what went wrong. The second
line as well says the same.

Problem 2 Windows 10 Wont Download
There are lots of users who have Windows 7, 8 or
8.1are supposed to be able to download Windows 10
automatically by simply clicking an upgrade icon
in the system tray on the taskbar. However, there
are some users have has difficulty with the
download or it have not been authorized to
download it yet.
9
Solution If you are required to upgrade the
normal way then you can easily fix this issue
manually. In some cases, the problem is
encountered because your current edition of
Windows is not fully updated and running Windows
Update solves the problem. You can work around
the problem by simply using the Microsofts
Windows 10 media download official tool. This
will download an .ISO file of the operating
system which can then be loaded on a USB drive or
a DVD to then install the OS from scratch.

Problem 3 Cortana Not Responding
Sometimes you have to wait for Microsoft to
address some of the issue with Cortana not
responding when you tap or click on them on the
microphone icon in the Taskbar. If your problem
is that then you should try going to Cortanas
settings using the Notebook Icon on the left side
of the Windows. You can simply adjust for volume
again and spend some time adding your voice
prints if you are in a reasonably quiet space.
11
Solution If your Cortana is not responding in
Windows 10 then you can set up Cortana in Windows
10 again. If after upgrading to Windows 10 then
you can find that Cortana is not available in
your region then this post titled Cortana not
available on Windows 10 can help you get Cortana
on your Windows 10 PC. Go through the entire post
then you can see which one or more of these
suggestions may apply in your case. Sign out and
sign in or restart your PC and check if the issue
goes away. Next you can also try automatic
repair because if your PC prompts for Automatic
Repair then you can continue with it and let
Windows carry it out. Or you can kill and restart
the Cortana process. If the Cortana is not
working in a proper way then you can kill Cortana
process and then restart the process trough Task
Manager. If it were just a minor runtime error
then you Cortana would just take a restart to fix
this issue.

Problem 4 Windows 10 Shares Your Wi-Fi With
Contacts
Though there is always a balance found between
security and convenience but some of the users
feel that Microsoft has overstepped the bounds
with the new Wi-Fi Sense feature. Then basic idea
is that it offers an easy and automatic way to
share your Wi-Fi password along with full
contacts fetched from your Facebook, Skype or
Outlook accounts. The main problem is that you
may need to grant access to your Wi-Fi network to
every one of your Facebook friends.
13
Solution You can uninstall the previous version
of Windows 10 and can reinstall the latest
version of Windows 10 where you will no longer
have to face this problem. For more Wi-Fi
options, you can try the below steps Go to
Settings gt Network Internet gt Wi-Fi gt Manage
Wi-Fi settings and you can toggle network sharing
off, or choose to include Outlook, Skype, or
Facebook.

Problem 5 Bluetooth Not Working
Few users of Windows 10 are getting some trouble
because their Bluetooth is not working properly.
This could impact your keyboard, headphones,
mouse and other things that connect to your
system through Bluetooth.
15
Solution You can try the below procedure to fix
this problem manually.   Go to Settings gt
Devices and make sure that Bluetooth is toggled
on. But make sure that your Bluetooth accessory
is fully charged and that you are following the
pairing process. Most of the time, you have to
hold down a button so that you can make the
device discoverable. Also, there is a possible
chance that this is a driver problem. You will
then have to check with the manufacturer that you
have the latest driver especially if you are
jumping straight from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

tricks. However, you can also try other third
