  1. Cheapest Way To Upgrade Vista To Win 10 Home With Legitimate Key?


    I have two old Vista 32 bit Laptops that I would like to upgrade to Win 10 home with legitimate keys without breaking the bank. One is mine and one is for a friend. By legitimate, I don't mean if they will work, but I mean Microsoft approved and properly licenced keys. Microsoft are selling their retail keys online for about 140. I have found a website that claims to be a Microsoft partner and selling Win 10 home retail for 120. But to be quite honest, I don't feel its worth upgrading old laptops for such a high cost, otherwise I would get a refurbished Win 10 machine. I have found other sites selling Win 10 home oem for 10 but I want to stay clear of those. There are local system builders who say they can install Win 10 with a Microsoft approved system builder licence for 60 + labour. Other back street shops want 20.

    This has got me very confused. I know how to do the installation myself. Can someone please advise me of the cheapest legitimate option to purchase a Microsoft Win 10 home key to install on these old machines? Where do reputable system builders get their licence keys from?

    Kind regards
    Chris

    Whats the Cheapest Way to Get Win 10?


    I want to know the cheapest way to get win 10. I read that you can buy a windows 7 key, install win 7 then upgrade to win 10.

    I also read you can buy a win 10 OEM license for $20 and you get all the updates. But if something stops working you can't get support from microsoft.

    Let me know what's the cheapest way to get win 10.

    Whats the Cheapest Way to Get Win 10?


    If your present computer is running Win 7 SP1 or Win 8.1, then you are entitled to have a FREE upgrade to Windows 10 through Windows Update.
    You can also download Windows 10 iso file and do an In-place Upgrade Install. That is also free.
    Those are your cheapest way.

    So, the question is : with the computer you are planning to upgrade, what operating system it is now running ?
