Symptoms
When you try to upgrade your computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7, the upgrade process stops responding at 62% indefinitely. Additionally, Windows creates a file that is named system_drive:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther\setupact.log. If you examine the contents of the file, you notice the following information: <date> <time>, Info MIG IPostApply::ApplySuccess for Plugin={ServerPath="%windir%\system32\migration\IphlpsvcMigPlugin.dll", CLSID={ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}, ThreadingModel=Apartment} - Working directory: C:\$UPGRADE.~OS\OnlineUpgradeApplyWork\srcworking\agentmgr\CCSIAgent\005AE0CB<date> <time>, Info [0x0808fe] MIG Plugin {ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: Performing upgrade actions for all protocols<date> <time>, Info [0x0808fe] MIG Plugin {ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: CountInterfacesOfAType for 0.InterfaceCount ptr = 1dae2b8, InterfaceCount = 0<date> <time>, Info [0x0808fe] MIG Plugin {ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: CountInterfacesOfAType for 0.Incrementing interface count<date> <time>, Info [0x0808fe] MIG Plugin {ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: CountInterfacesOfAType for 0.InterfaceCount ptr = 1dae2b8, New value of *InterfaceCount = 1<date> <time>, Info [0x0808fe] MIG Plugin {ade10465-2a43-454e-b0a7-3f220a61bd03}: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: IphlpsvcMigPlugin: RegEnumKeyEx return 259. key name: {AC049C3C-9B90-41A7-9385-DC5AD3E656F0}.new index: 2Warning [0x080b50] MIG AsyncCallback_ApplyStatus: Progress appears to be stuck.
