  1. Transfer Upgraded Win10 (From win7) license to a new build?


    I built my last computer in 2012 using Win7. I upgraded to Win10 when it became available. I'm now going to build a new machine with only a few parts from the current one. The old machine will be decommissioned, and it's SSD will become a data drive for the new machine which will be using a m.2 boot drive.

    Is there a way to legally transfer my Win10 license as a clean install to the new machine when built?

    :)

    Transfering Win10 digital license to a new computer?

    Hello!

    How does one transfer a digital license of Win 10 from one computer to another?

    I have found online how to transfer from one computer to another a boxed version of Win10, found information that it's not possible to transfer license if Win10 is upgraded from Win7, but can't seem to find what to do in case of digital licenses.

    Thank you!

    Previous win7 Pro install was eligible, new PC (+new install) is not? Is a transfer of license possible?

    My "old" PC had a genuine win7 pro license that was upgraded from a win vista license.

    This "old" PC was eligible for the win10 upgrade and I postponing to download it, since I was going to buy a complete new PC anyway.

    With my new PC also came a new win7 pro install (Dell based), mainly because the whole win vista>7 install was bugging me since the win vista DVD was not recognized by the new system.

    But this new win 7 pro install (all genuine, activated, updated and everything) still hasn't recieved the win10 upgrade deal.

    Is it possible to use the previous license (still owned by me) to get the win10 upgrade transferred to my new system?

    Kind regards,

    Henk
