    W7 To W10 transfering data and files from old PC to New PC

    I have an old PC running W7 and want to transfer files and data, music to a new PC running W10. Easy transfer cable is not so easy with W10. Is there a program or something to accomplish this task? THX

    W10 licence transfer. What happens if I change/upgrade my PC later on?


    On the contrary, I'd rather not have to think about it at all! It ought to be this simple...


    1. Register with Microsoft for free Windows 10 upgrade.
    2. Provide evidence that you are a current legit Windows 7/8/8.1 user.
    3. Receive a new Windows 10 product key.
    4. Download Windows 10 from Microsoft.
    5. Clean install Windows 10 to computer.
    6. Use new key to activate.
    7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 when transferring to new computer.

    I really don't understand why it needs to be any harder than that!

    Transferring Non-OEM Windows 10 key to a new PC

    Greg,

    I'm on the new PC, and on the "Reactivate Windows 10" screen, this new PC is not showing; only my old one is. Is there a step I missed?

    Thanks,

    Ben
