    Hi

    I just wanted to know that if the default OS was Windows 8, Will upgrading to Windows 10 beat the performance of a Windows 7 default PC?

    Just curious

    Does a computer that has Windows 8 pre-installed run Windows 10 Faster?

    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.
