I've been trying unsuccessfully to upgrade to Windows 10. I come to find out from running system file checker, that part of the Windows 8.1 OS is "conveniently" corrupted. This is apparently causing the Windows 10 upgrade to stop at 74% complete and display a message that the system cannot boot. There is no problem booting WIndows 8.1 though.

Is there anyway to repair the OS or do I have to do a complete reinstall? What's going to be involved in doing a complete reinstall if it comes to that? I had the hard drive swapped out for a SSD and the OS was reinstalled, but I didn't to the drive upgrade or the OS install.
