Right, so recently I finished upgrading my PC and the last piece of the puzzle was a new SSD. I installed it, cloned my old one to the new and then formatted the old drive as a secondary. I'd been on a "non-genuine" copy of Windows 7 ever since I couldn't remove the product key from my old motherboard however when I installed the new hard drive I was allowed to activate windows (not sure how???). Anyway once this was finished the free upgrade for Windows 10 appeared, this seemed like a good idea as it would finish off my PC nicely, the cherry on the cake if you will. I started to download the update and went to bed. Next morning "Windows failed to boot". Great! I managed to create a Windows 10 recovery disk however it couldn't repair the OS nor could it upgrade it again. I deleted the partitions on the old drive and installed it fresh. Windows 10 is up an running on my old hard drive however all my data and installed apps are on the new one. Is there anyway I can install Windows 10 on my new hard drive without formatting or wiping my data. Obviously I can backup to the old hard drive then wipe and install the OS on the new however installing all my apps/games doesn't appeal to me that much, anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Elliott
