    What options do I have for multiple PCs to transfer data from PC to PC? PC Mover is not an option for licensing

    multiple PCs.

    Sharing drives with Win7 & Win10

    There's nothing wrong with the hard disks. If I use them with Win7 alone there's no boot scanning. The moment I share with Win10 & switch back to Win7 then the disks have to be scanned. I ever tried to skip the scan but after bootup the disks are not accessible
    in Win7. Those USB flashdrive that I created in Win7 & then used in Win10 which I transferred more data inside is not accessible in Win7 again. It say to format the flashdrive

    Sharing drives with Win7 & Win10

    I uncheck the Fast Startup. Then I shutdown the system & connect an empty hard disk & start up again. Then I format the disk & transferred a few Gb of data to the new hard disk & shut down. After that I swap over to Win7 & startup. Now I can access everything
    in the hard disk. Then I transferred 50Gb of pictures & videos to this disk & shutdown. I switch over to Win10 & I could only see the previous data created in Win10 but not the 50Gb of pictures & video from Win7. Back to square one.

    In Win7 the new hard disk register at 20% usage but in Win10 it's only 2%

    There's something different between Win10 & the rest of the older OS

    Then I did a restart & this time there's a boot scanning of the new hard disk. After that I can access all the new data from Win7 & can play all the videos too. I shutdown & switch to Win7 & there's a boot scanning again. Now able to access everything. Why
    do the hard disk need to scan at bootup in order to be accessed?

    If I share my 2pcs of 2TB hard disks with Win10 a lot of time will be spent on boot scanning. Is there any way to go around this? Until then Win7 is still my primary working system

    Data Transfer Win7 to Win10

    How to transfer Win10 license correctly?

    No, you don't need to transfer any licenses.

    If you upgrade your Win7 Pro to Win10 it will get a digital license for Win10 Pro in it's own right, based on having a qualifying activated Win7. Although MS have said the free upgrades have ended, quietly behind they scenes they still will be activated.

    Use the Media Creation Tool to make an install USB then use Step 6 in this tutorial.

    Upgrade to Windows 10
