Windows 10: Is 7 pro OEM version eligible for upgrade to Windows 10?

Hi,

Whilst I haven't had a chance to verify this, in theory it shouldn't be a problem if you remove the old machine from your MS account prior to introducing the new one.

That key
Windows Product Key: *****-*****-CM74G-RPHKF-PW487
is the default key that is installed when you install Windows without the key.

Your Amazon disk should of had a key sticker stuck to the box

 

Well.... I really feel stupid - or I prefer neglectful.

I looked at the packaging several times and numbers are written all over it - none of which are the product key. I was about to take a picture of my own of the plastic case to post here and saw the blank space that stipulated emphatically to tear off that sticker and place it on my computer. Being a good little boy I did as directed and that's why I didn't see a product key during my investigation. It was on my computer where I placed it several years ago.

I entered the product key and walla - Windows 10 now is activated.

Thanks for recognizing that sometimes simple things are overlooked in favor of assuming something drastic is needed.

 

That's OK, I can't count how many times I have put something in a specific place thinking, "I am going to put this right here so I know exactly where it's at"..... and then forget where I put it the next day.

Here's a little hint - make sure and keep a backup copy of that sticker - especially if it is on the bottom of a laptop where it will rub off over time.
