Thanks

The thing to remember is to ensure that your PC is up to date with all
its patches and that it doesn't have any issues. Many problems have been
caused because the user hoped that upgrading will fix them. Will's
advice about sfc/scannow - do it first.

There is a possibility that the upgrade will fail. However, there is an
alternative - see

needed. And backup first!
