    How to get W10 back after crash if I got it via the W7 online upgrade


    My PC will no longer boot into windows. It is a Sager gaming laptop that has been my desktop for 2.5 years.

    If this is fixable but W10 needs to be reinstalled, how do I do that? I have no disks as it came from the free upgrade online from W7.

    Should I reinstall W7 and then apply for the online upgrade again? Or can I somehow just get W10 (without paying for it.)

    I do have a little Yoga 900 that also got the free upgrade. Is there some sort of license number on that computer to get W10 reinstalled on the broken computer?

    And I have same question about Office 2010. It too was an upgrade.

    Thanks!

    :)

    W7 to W10 upgrade

    I have tried to upgrade to W10 home premium from my 64-bit W7 home premium operating system on my laptop. I checked that I meet all requirements and have tried everything anyone ever suggested. I wasted 2 days in December 2015, and still failed.

    I had no problem in March 2016 upgrading my desktop W7 Ultimate to W10, so I thought I might try again to upgrade my W7 home premium.

    I have now wasted another 2 days in March trying to upgrade the laptop. Either it is a problem with my laptop that the Windows Update Trouble-Shooter does not find, or W7 Home Premium (64) will not upgrade to W10. I give up.

    W7 to W10 upgrade

    I am considering upgrading from my current w7 home premium 64 bit to w10 which is offered free.

    Main reason due to w7 home premium only allowing me to use half of my 32gm of ram.

    Simple question:

    Will w7 home premium 64 bit upgrade to w10 home 64 bit?

    upgrade W7 to W10

    My first question was answered so quickly thought I would try another question

    Having problems right now with W7. Will an upgrade to W10 be impacted by issues I am having with W7. Are there any shared files from W7 that remain.
