I know there are a lot of different threads about this issue but all of them seemed to do nothing in my case. I updated everything and tried pasting:

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Appraiser" /v UtcOnetimeSend /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
schtasks /run /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser"
:CompatCheckRunning
schtasks /query /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser" | findstr Ready >nul
if NOT "%errorlevel%" == "0" ping localhost >nul &goto :CompatCheckRunning
schtasks /run /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Setup\gwx\refreshgwxconfig"

Into Notepad, naming it Windows10Upgrade.cmd, then running it.

I tried almost everything, yet I cannot find the reservation app, I even see the app on my brothers computer and others, but it just won't show up on mine.

Edit: I have windows 8.1

Edit 2: I think this problem is coming from GWX.exe not running, I took some steps to get it running but all have failed.
 

Is your copy of Windows 8.1 authentic and genuinely activated? Otherwise the Windows Insider Program is closed, or you could take that route. If the Windows 8.1 copy is not authentic, and activated, you will have difficulties with the official upgrade appearing.

After following that link I saw that I had the updates I needed, yet I am unable to find the app still.
 

@MatthewLawrence

Did you use the instructions to uninstall and reinstall? That seems to be the key regarding kemical's post
 

If you have all your updates and nothing is appearing then you might go to this link and click on download from dropbox. I think that is right. Anyway they tell you how to do it.
