Upgrading Windows 10 on a dual-boot system is not that easy. After fetching KB3035583 and KB2952664 and reserving my upgrade copy on Windows 7 Professional x64 the setup still said “Something happened. We can’t tell if your PC is ready to continue installing Windows 10. Try restarting setup.”

The reason for this seems to be dual-boot installations only. First off, change the default boot entry to Windows.
