    How can I carry over W10 32 bits to another computer


    I have 2 computers. One with W10 32 bits (update from W7). (I have a upgrade disk of W10). The other (older) computer works under Linux Ubuntu. I want to change the OS's in W10 32 bits on the oldest computer and W10 64 bits on the newest one. I have bought W10 64 bits. So I have to bring the W10 32 bits operating system to the computer with the Linux Ubuntu OS. But I don't know how I must do so. Who can help me ?


    :)

    Free Windows 10 upgrade entitlement

    I've read through the posts on upgrading from Windows 7 32-bit to Windows 10 64bit, and all the useful advice they contain, but I can't find a definitive answer to my question:

    Assuming I can upgrade somehow from W7 32-bit to W10 64-bit, does my W7 32-bit licence carry with it an entitlement to activate W10 64-bit under the terms of the upgrade scheme?

    One way or another I can sort out the technical issues myself.

    Many thanks.

    Install W10 32 bit after 64 bit installation?

    I upgraded my computer from W8 32 bit to W10 64 bit to take advantage of my installed 6 GB RAM instead of being limited to 4 GB RAM under the old system.

    Now that I have upgraded, I find that running my 32 bit Turbocad program I run out of RAM memory when I render a drawing. I have since found out that W10 64 bit limits 32 bit programs to 2 GB.

    Would the installation of a dual boot 32/64 bit OS allow me to run the program and access more RAM?

    If so, I upgraded to W10 64 bit by uploading the free installation program. How would I install a 32 bit OS?

    Your licenses to not care about 32 bit or 64 bit - they only care about Home or Pro.

    If you want 64 bit on your newer computer you'll have to clean install it as you can't upgrade from 32 to 64 bit. It will activate automatically - just select "I don't have a key" when prompted.

    For your old computer just install Windows 10 (either 32 or 64 bit) and activate it with the key it came with when you bought it.

    You can download the 32 and 64 bit ISOs from Windows 10 ISO - just make sure to chose Home or Pro according to the licenses you have.
