Extension of time to upgrade to Windows 10

I've read that an upgrade can still be performed on PCs where upgrade attempts didn't work.  I got it installed on about 18 PCs before the clock ran out, but couldn't get two to upgrade after many changes to machines in response to messages when the upgrades failed.  I later found a post that suggested unplugging printers and/or other peripherals, as the upgrade would try to update their drivers and would fail. That would be the next thing I'd try.

I had an email about how to get an extension of time, but I can't find it.  Accidentally deleted I suppose.

Does anyone have any information on this?

Thanks, Ron Hicks

The extension is not official and you got no email. So as per above, do the upgrades now because you are already late.

I knew about the assistive tech option; I agree it would be unethical even though it reportedly isn't being verified, so I'm not going that route. I had not heard about the options dbrunton mentioned.  I had read of a third, for people that ran into problems being able to contact MS and get an extension and assistance, but I can't find it again.
