Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor still has problems

by Bill Hely on November 26, 2009 · 0 comments

bugWell, it didn’t take me long to find a machine that returned the same old message for the new version of Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

However, despite that failure, I have to admit that the Upgrade Advisor development team do seem to be very keen to get it sorted out as soon as possible. Within a few hours of sending them complete details I had a personal response from the Program Manager. In his words: “It looks like there’s another issue happening later in Upgrade Advisor due to another WMI corruption issue”.

Having some appreciation of just how complex these programs can be I’m not overly concerned that a new application doesn’t run 100% perfectly in all situations and under all circumstances.

I’m only concerned when developers turn a blind eye and deaf ear to problem reports, and these guys certainly aren’t giving that impression.

Stay tuned — I’ll keep you updated.
