You can still upgrade to Windows 10 for free, until the 31st of december 2017, if you are using assistive technologies.

You can do a Windows 8 Reset. This keeps all your data, drivers and basic Windows 8 apps. This basically reinstalls Windows 8 and you should be able to make it work correctly and update properly.
Then restore your applications.
You can upgrade to Windows 10, but you need to pay for the license.
