  1. dualboot Windows 10 and Windows 7


    Hello. I want to dual-boot my laptop which has windows 10 po x64 version 1909 with windows 7. I already have windows 10 installed but i want windows 7 too. I saw some videos on youtube and some articles on the internet but i'm not very sure about this. I extracted an iso image of win 7 service pack 1 and ran the setup.exe file and it has gotten me to the point where i select the partitions (in my mind i was good). But will it install just simple as that?! I am most thinking about drivers. I prepared a partition for the windows 7 as i just saw on the internet. I posted an thred on sevenforums.com about this last night. Or if i can't will I be able to dual boot windows 8.1 then. My laptop is a dell vostro 3580 with uefi. I know it has some things like safeboot and legacy rom's. Im scared to do this.

    :)

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. 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.

    Windows 10 Snipping Tool on Windows 7

    All it is is one extra step beyond what is native to windows 10. Yes, technically it would be easier to have the functionality of print built in to the Windows 7 version, but you just have to save it ,and right click on it ,and print.

    As far as getting the windows 10 version into windows7. I know there was a way to get the old winpaint, so maybe there's a way to get the snipping tool into 10, I don't know.

    im curious if i could compress, and upload the application to this post? 7zip doesnt seem to be allowed
