...stating that "Installation failed in the First_boot phase with an error during migrate_data operation".

 

Thought I'd share a fix (as there appear to be a few others on the ORBX forums hitting this too). Found that there was an error with an ORBX file called "TODO" in the C:\Users\Dylan\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Orbx  (after hunting around in the C:\$Windows.~BT\Sources\Panther diagerror.log).

 

Deleted that, and the install completed normally.

 

 

Thank you for sharing this fix. It did help me install windows 10.

Yup, can confirm that this little file was the cause of my install woes. Great find Dylan.

Simply amazing.  On one of my test machines I was getting this error repeatedly and many hours of research did not turn up a solution.  I could do clean installs all day long, but upgrades failed with this error every time.  Kudos for the detective work!

Most welcome! Glad it worked for you too...

Thanks - I'm getting this error and will try again later - Rick

 

EDIT - just tried it and it worked.  Amazing that this little file caused so much frustration!

Yups, exactly the issue that took me four tries as well.

Is this file un-needed by the orbx programs? Deleting it causes no issue?

Big thanks to you. I would have never found this solution and now Windows 10 is working. :Applause:

And thanks from me too, after 2 days of tearing my hair out this finally fixed it, thanks again :smile:

I've been battling this all day - that is super helpful, thank you.

This was just perfect. I had not idea how to solve this exact problem. Thanks a lot!

OMG - just read this now - if I have read this yesterday I hadn't started from scratch :mad: :mad: :mad:

Another thank you!

Deleting the TODO file allowed my Win10 upgrade to proceed too.

Thanks , fixed it for me. Funny I was surfing Microsoft looking for info on the error  thinking it was a driver or device and was pointed back to AVSIM to this thread ...lol. Has anyone notified ORBX to get rid of their zero byte file?
