When my friend attempts to upgrade (automatically) from windows 8/8.1 to windows 10 her laptop eventually comes up with this error: 80072EE2. Anyone who can help, please?

To put it mildly: I AM DISGUSTED. Bill Gates expect average Joe to master the intricasies of windows 10 within 30 days?

Windows 10 is magnificent. That said it appears to me as if nr 10 was created solely from an American perspective? With nr 8 I could go to my internet settings and mostly negate any unwanted advertisements. Being online with nr 10 I use an inordinate amount of data, no matter how I tweak my...
