re: Windows could not upgrade the file %1 from %2 Tuesday, May 13, 2003 at 3:47 pm Windows 2000 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Deb (1462 messages posted) First of all, you should always reply in the original thread or else it's hard to know what's going on...but since I do...can you boot into command prompt only? You may have to rename it in dos. If that's not possible I would boot to the windows 2000 CD and do a repair to try to fix the problem. You can press enter to install and then when it finds the original installation you hit R to repair and that way you don't lose your data. You will need the CD Key though.
