    Product Key for Windows 7


    Can I use a Windows 10 product key to activate Windows 7? I need to do this on a work computer, so I do not need anyone to recommend me to "stay on Windows 10" or whatever. Just trust me.

    :)

  2. 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.

  3. Convert a Windows 8pro product key to a Windows 10pro produkt key

    Hi Andre,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft community.

    I suggest you to Uninstall the license using the following steps.

    • Press Windows key + X
    • Click Command Prompt (Admin)
    • At the command prompt, type: slmgr.vbs -upk
    • Press Enter, this will uninstall the product key from the computer.
    Further on, install Windows 8.1 activate the copy with the product key on the new machine. Then again upgrade the same to Windows 10 using Window Update or Media Creation Tool.

    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

    Windows 10 to Windows 7 Product Key

    Hello.

    I have now installed Windows 7 pro OEM and I am considering to upgrade to Windows 10. I have a several questions about Windows 10.

    • When I upgrade to Windows 10, if I don't like it can I downgrade back to Windows 7? How do I do that?
    • After upgrade to Windows 10 what will happen to my official Windows 7 pro OEM product key?
    • If I uninstall the whole OS after upgrading to Windows 10 and try to install Windows 7 pro like it was, will the product key fit?
