Briefly, the upgrade process consists of four phases that are controlled by [Windows Setup](/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/windows-setup-technical-reference): **Downlevel**, **SafeOS**, **First boot**, and **Second boot**. The computer will reboot once between each phase. Note: Progress is tracked in the registry during the upgrade process using the following key: **HKLM\System\Setup\mosetup\volatile\SetupProgress**. This key is volatile and only present during the upgrade process; it contains a binary value in the range 0-100.
