    Can't run old Windows installers on Windows 10


    Hii don't know exactly when this happened but sometime i assume during an update i have lost the ability to run XP period installers on Windows10. compatibility mode does nothing, and there is not even an error message. the installers do not make it passed the initial splash screen, and then essentially hang and show as "not responding"in task manager till i force close them.I stumbled upon a piece of software for checking library dependencies of exes for Windows and all of these old installers i tried show a dll missing called:"ext-ms-win-oobe-query-l1-1-0.dll"There is not much info on the in

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
