Alright, so I have a multibook, which runs on 32bit Win 8.1. Its C drive is 32GB, of which only 21GB is usable. Through the Windows Icon in the toolbar, I reserved my upgrade for Windows 10 (so I have all requirements).
Then when I tried to actually download it, there was an error, saying I didn't have enough space on my PC, and after selecting a large external hard drive to store additional data on, I still had to free an additional 5,5GB on the C drive, which is simply impossible, as Windows itself takes up 18GB of the 21GB on my C drive (this was after selecting a large external hard drive for storing additional data). Well, I went cleaning anyway, and after cleaning about 3GB from the C drive, for some reason, it worked and initiated the upgrade.
Then, during the upgrade, another error showed up, saying that something was wrong and it would roll back to Windows 8.1. This happened in the window with the black screen and white progression circle, at around 50%. I've tried it at least 5 times now and every time the same thing happens.
Now I don't know what's wrong. It could be that I still actually don't have enough room on my C drive. I also found something on the internet about a corrupted recovery partition, but I could change anything in my recovery partition (besides, I'm not really sure what it does so I don't dare delete it). This partition does use 7,5GB so clearing it might help, if possible.
One thing I tried was do a full system recovery of my PC, but that got an error too! About half a minute into the recovery it would say that the system did not restore and will go back to how it was before (without losing anything).
Another thing I tried was installing the windows 10 update on a USB through the media creation tool. But then it would never give me the option to actually install it on the USB, and it would say that the drive is too full to download the upgrade again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
