We have received calls from clients saying their new pc's haven't shown the windows 10 icon in the bottom right hand corner.
All these PC's are controlled by WSUS for their updates and part of a company client/server domain.
We have manually checked for updates online and applied the updates that should have produced the windows 10 icon but hasn't
Any assistance would be gratefully received.
Thanks

computers that are on a domain will not receive an update notice.
Even if you install the patch from ms.
If you wish to upgrade a windows computer to Windows 10
1. change computer to work group
2. remove computer from AD
3. Then run the upgrade tool
After windows 10 updates then you can rejoin to AD

All the pc's are Windows 7 pro and local admins
I'll remove it from the domain tomorrow and see the results
Thanks
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

Sorry, why disjoin the domain? If someone claims he had needed to do that, then I'd like to see his explanation.
Here, not a single machine had to disjoin the domain to upgrade.
The reason this rumor is around is because the GWX ("Get Windows 10")-Application will not start on domain joined machines, but that has nothing to do with upgrading using an ISO, that simply works. So save your breath and leave them domain joined :)

HI,
We didn't need to disjoin from the domain, it worked using the link provided and the PC's are now up and running fine.
Thanks
