problem on upgrading from win7 professional to win 10

i have this problem on upgrading from win7 professional to win 10. When windows update check for programs not compatible with win 10 list the following : microsoft virtual pc 2007 sp1 and

virtual pc 2007 sp1

and ask permission to remove both. I granted permission and the first was successfully removed but for the last windows update ask to remove it manually. The little problem is that this program dont exist and never existed on my machine. i reinstalled micrososoft
virtual pc upgraded to sp1 unistalled reboot but without any luck. Checked registry List of programs installed menu start all i can think of no istance of this program. I search on google the only virtual pc 2007 sp1 is the microsoft version so i am blocked
on this issue. Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

 

Perform upgrade to win7 ultimate OEM copy to Win 10 pro but keep using Win7 Ultimate, Win 8.1 and New Win 10 in triple boot

Hello Frank,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

We understand your concern in this regard.

• What do you mean by this statement "If I purchased the win 10 pro upgrade USB retail, cloned my win7 install to another hard drive on the same computer and use the Upgrade Win10 USB to upgrade "cloned" win 7 install to win 10 would I have a license to all
  3 products"?
• You mean upgrading Windows 7 or installing on different partition?

I appreciate if you could simplify your query with an example, so that we'll analyze the issue and guide you accordingly.

 

Perform upgrade to win7 ultimate OEM copy to Win 10 pro but keep using Win7 Ultimate, Win 8.1 and New Win 10 in triple boot

This is my question I have and what I would like to do:

I have a self built computer that I bought OEM version of Windows 7 ultimate and then upgraded to large SSD drive and then bought OEM Win8.1 pro and is in a dual boot setup. I currently use Win 8.1 but really miss my Win7 install as it has all my programs
and installs that I really would like to upgrade to Win 10 Pro but I want to keep win 7 install and also Win 8.1 install after I "upgrade" to Win 10. If I purchased the win 10 pro upgrade USB retail, cloned my win7 install to another hard drive on the same
computer and use the Upgrade Win10 USB to upgrade "cloned" win 7 install to win 10 would I have a license to all 3 products?

I do not want to do the "free" upgrade as that would then make the win7 ultimate no longer valid but I do have an unused win7 pro license that I never used but is it even possible to "downgrade a valid install to achieve my end result? I am hoping to have
a valid 3 installs and could continue to use then all 3 operating systems in triple boot fashion. (I did that with win 3.1, win98 and winxp). What would be the best way to upgrade to win10 but not have to reinstall all my programs in win10 or program install
or custom settings to win7 install and have 3 valid install with licenses?
