I obtained my Y-DNA haplogroup from my AncestryDNA raw DNA file using the first method detailed herein this link: http://www.geneticgenealogist.net/2016/01/how-to-get-ydna-haplogroup-from.htmlhttps://www.geneticgenealogist.net/2016/01/how-to-get-ydna-haplogroup-from.html
In short, it goes through 3 steps:
1/ you convert your AncestryDNA raw DNA file into 23andme format using a small VBS program you can obtain from here:
drive.google.com/file/d/0ByaSZfKQX51lNHJSSUlsNGxTQmM/view
You simply have to put it in the same directory as your unzipped DNA file (txt file), double click, and it will do the conversion and create a new file in the same directory named yourdnafilename_Edited.txt
2/ You install this program and load the 23andme format dna file into it:
drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B7vzRsRM2aOQcU5fckNjdEg1ZWs
(it requires .NET Framework 4.0, so you might have to install that first)
Go to File -> Save, and save into another text file
3/ Copy the content of this text file into the text area on this website, and run the predictor:
You should get your Y-DNA haplogroup now, which is the result labeled "most likely". If you get BT or F as "most likely" (most people have those, so it's almost redundant), then the next prediction is the most likely (and relevant) for you (there should be more "green" in it than the other options). GoodIf you have a problem or a question, either refer to the article linked above, or ask me. Good luck!
