    I have Windows 7 Professional on my current HDD and I bought a SSD that matches the capacity of the HDD. Since I can no longer use my Windows Installation Disc, I was thinking about cloning my HDD to the new SSD and upgrade to Windows 10 on the SSD only.
    But will this work? Or would it discontinue my license of Windows 7 on the HDD? I don't if what I'm trying to do here is illegal. If this doesn't work I'll just end up buying another copy of Windows 7.

    Last Question: If I upgrade to Windows 10, does the license last forever? I'm confused if it's really free or just a 12 month license.

    So are you saying you tested this and it did not work? If yes, Did you connect to the internet for auto activation.?

    Lets try to get past the language barrier.

    Did you actually run the upgrade on EACH of the computers BEFORE you restored the clone to the next one? YES/NO

    1. Upgrade Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Free Upgrade and activation OK
    2. Clone one PC with all configurations
    3. Restore clone to another PC > Activation error
