It does make sense, as the upgrade may break the system because of the tampering. Probably say upfront that there's a problem and let the user do a full reinstall when they can rather than attempt to upgrade and break everything. They could have a "force upgrade" button, but many people would just click that without thinking twice then blame MS when it breaks everything.
