    Will this work with going from Win 7 Pro 32-bit to Win 10 Pro 64-bit?


    I wonder if there is any problem for going this route with installing Win 10/64-bit on a computer that had Win 7/32-bit (without ever installing Win 10/32-bit)?
    Basically I am thinking about the process described here: How to Switch From 32-bit Windows 10 to 64-bit Windows 10 while skipping the middle step, - by using Shawn's solution.

    Installing 32-bit Free Win 10 upgrade On a 64-bit Win 7

    I'm going through all Computers in my house putting the free upgrade on them. I came to one of my computers. It's running Windows 7 SP1 64-bit. I'm installing the Windows 10 and I get a error saying "Processor doesn't support PrefetchW"

    Okay, after all the 64-bit requires a processor that supports it

    • To install a 64-bit OS on a 64-bit PC, your processor needs to support CMPXCHG16b,
      PrefetchW, and LAHF/SAHF.
    So I'll do 32-bit Windows 10. However the setup will not run. It wan'ts me to do 64-bit.

    I've looked in the registry and cannot find anyway to trick the computer into thinking it's a 32-bit.

    I created a USB drive of Windows 10 32-bit from another computer, however, now it asks for a product key. It will not take my Windows 7 SP1 Key.

    There should not be an issue doing that, as long as the computer supports 64-bit.
