Windows 10: Moving from Windows 7 to Windows 10

Hello everyone.

This is my first time using this forum, was already on sevenforums before so I came to this forum since I am moving to Windows 10 OS. If I posted in wrong section, administrator please move to correct thread or something, I'm new to use of forum.


Anyway, my problem is that I have 500gb hdd as storage drive in my computer. I read that I should format my hdd on windows10 in order to be recognized by os, but is there any way arround? I don't have spare hdd or anything to backup all those files, there is about 300gb of files.

Any help is apreciated

:)

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
