Fix: We Couldn’t Install Windows 10 (0x8007002C – 0x400D) Error

[212eta]

The final version of Windows 10 was launched about two weeks ago, and since then over 25 million PC users have upgraded their PCs from Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 using the free upgrade offer.

For most users, the free upgrade offer to Windows 10 has been fairly easy.

Most users have successfully upgraded to Windows 10 from Windows 7/8.1 without any issues,

but a small percentage of PC users are having issues.

The other day, I tried updating my Lenovo Thinkpad T410s laptop running Windows 8.1 to Windows 10

using the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool. The upgrade went smoothly till the last step and then started

restoring the previous version of Windows, which was Windows 8.1.
Error code: 0x8007002C – 0x400D

After restoring Windows 10 and booting in to Windows 10, the following dialog appeared with “We couldn’t install Windows 10 (0x8007002C – 0x400D). The installation failed in the Second_Boot phase with an error during Migrate-Data operation” error.

If you’re are also getting “We couldn’t install Windows 10 (0x8007002C – 0x400D).

The installation failed in the Second_Boot phase with an error during Migrate-Data operation” error, here is the workaround to successfully upgrade to Windows 10 without the error.
