Explanation
Booting a computer from Windows 10 installation media launches the Windows Setup in a pre-OS environment, which performs a clean (fresh) installation rather than an in-place upgrade. An in-place upgrade requires running setup.exe from within the currently running Windows 8.1 operating system so that Setup can migrate files, applications, and settings. Starting from boot media bypasses the existing OS entirely and will not preserve data or perform the migration that defines an in-place upgrade.
