If your hardware is current enough to use UEFI you're going to be OK on the licensing, right. That message about it being a driver issue is not always precise. What was happening in my case was a weird install loop where it downloaded, tried to install, threw the error message, and tried over again, over and over. I don't think it was a driver so much as a corrupt update database, at least for me, but just redoing that database didn't turn the trick, and a clean install did.

Did your install finish OK or do you still have the issue?

Internet is slow for me tonight because I'm - yep - downloading an update. You can control that on Home edition by clicking the network connection and setting it to "Metered Connection", so it will at least ask before it clobbers your bandwidth. And guess what - the update resets it, and you have to do it all over again. Lovely.

I’ve read about the “metered” trick. It works for wireless, but not for direct connection, which I prefer.

My install finished OK after a bunch of false starts, but that’s when I found I had a crippled computer—the drivers for both ethernet direct and wireless were there in device manager, but it said they couldn’t be loaded. That’s when I had to try roll-back, which worked quickly and well.

The install loop push is what I’ve had for the past several days, and is why I tried pretty hard to do the upgrade.
