    How to transfer an upgraded Windows 10 license


    I built my current computer back in 2012, and had bought a Windows 7 Pro Home retail license. I did the free upgrade to Windows 10 when it was offered. I'm building a new computer now, and have read that I can transfer this license at least once. I've found websites that give an overview of the process, but it glosses over how to do the actual install as in, do I get a USB stick and stick an ISO file on it, and where do I get that file?. I don't know what my full license key is for Windows 10, but I still have it for Windows 7. How would I go about doing this?

    :)

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    The interesting question is that: the upgrade takes place before 29 of July. If I upgrade the PC (change the MB), and I transfer the Win 8.1 license to this new PC (cause 8.1 is retail FPP), will I be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free? Or a upgrade license must be bought?

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    Hello guys,

    I have 1 license of WIndows 8.1 FPP/retail license. I want to upgrade to WIndows 10, but I one thing is unclear to me.
    If I upgrade, will WIndows 10 license be retail or it will "turn" into some sort of OEM license?

    I ask this because I upgrade my PC, you know, more memory, replace HDD, and I intend to upgrade the MB and CPU to Kaby Lake platform sometime in the future, (and of course sell the replaced hardware)
    This thing is not clearly mentioned anywhere.

    Thank you.

    and to my question do you have an update.
