    Trying to upgrade to Windows 10


    Ok needing some help here's whats going on. I have a windows 8.1 bing laptop I'm trying to upgrade to windows 10 for free which I can still do windows support said its still possible since my windows 8.1 bing was already active. So here's the problem. My laptop is a hp stream 11 with built in hard drive so there's no way to just reemove and upgrade the size. So the hard drive is currently a 21. something gb hard drive and there's only like 8 gb free.

    So the windows installer says there's not enough free space and since I just reset the pc yesterday to remove previous owners user name and password. I don't know what could be taking up the space. I do have a 16gb flash drive with windows 10 pro upgrade onto it from when I upgraded my desktop pc.

    Here's the crazy part since my hard drive in the laptop is a complete 21. something gb hard drive is it possible to format it and remove the current windows from it and install the windows 10 pro from the flash drive onto the laptop. I know it might sound odd the way I'm explaining this but I'm new to laptops. And if I could install from the usb flash drive how would I go by doing it if I don't know the product key. Is it possible to find it on my desktop and also use the same one on my laptop if I can upgrade it like that.

    I hope I'm commenting in the correct area.

    :)

    Reverting back to 7 is not possible, who would of guessed? God damn wheres the **** support for this ****!

    I have also tried to use an Ethernet cable to connect to the internet and the same or similar problems arise (not being able to access the flashing or none flashing taskbar with along with the windows associated programs). I suppose the direction windows
    is going, that internet is just a useless thing of the past??

    Windows 11 or "9" must be the answer to the inbred thinking to windows 10. AWFUL COMPANY AND PRODUCT! thanks for the damn support Trying to upgrade to Windows 10 ;) i feel appreciated as a customer.

    I will just disregard this message and revert back to Windows 7. This has been very disappointing. This is a Microsoft upgrade and a Microsoft issue, which there is minute support for. I use this computer for work purposes, and this experience has done nothing
    but conflict the way I make my money. Therefor, I will not be wasting my money on a company that has no interest in supporting their customers or taking the time (three years obviously was not nearly enough) to make sure,
    their product, is fully functional before it is pushed out.

    Please ignore this entire post unless there is a known fix or an update that solves the incompetency of this upgrade. I wish to not waste anymore of my time with dead ends. Wish me good luck in reverting back to 7 as I have little faith in this faulty operating
    system!

    Basically if that lappy is Win 8 Bing - a Win 10 Home will auto activate with the firmware key. The Win 10 Pro from your USB will not.
