    Win7 to Win10 Possibilities?


    Anyone exploring the possibilities of moving from Win7 to Win10 upon release.
    Anyone with experience with Win10 can share insights for Win7 users - probably
    done before, but haven't seen much lately (mainly just Win8 to Win10).

    Thanks


    :)

    ual boot system upgrade to windows 10

    Thanks Jessen for the hint. I was expecting a yes or no answer, since I already have a dual boot system(xp+win7), and if I upgrade win10 from win7 boot, would win7 be replaced by win10 and becomes a (xp+win10) dual boot system?

    But it looks more complicated than I thought, should I check current system has xp and win7 are installed in DIFFERENT partitions, otherwise xp would be gone after win7 is upgraded to win10 if xp and win7 are in SAME partition?

    Sharing drives with Win7 & Win10

    My system is running both Win7 & Win10 on different SSD. There are 2 more HDDs of 2TB each in the PC. After using them in Win10 & then switch back to Win7 the 2HDDs will be scanned at bootup over & over again. Those data created in Win10 are not accessible
    in Win7.

    Then I got an USB flashdrive 64Gb created in Win7 & then used in Win10. After that it can't be accessed in Win7 anymore. Message say to format the drive before usage

    Win7 to Win10 Possibilities?

    Hi Gumboman, welcome to the Ten Forums.

    Upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10 is easy, allowing you to decide if you want to perform a clean install, keep your personal files only, or keep both personal files and installed software. Here's one in-place upgrade test I made: https://www.tenforums.com/installatio...sing-apps.html.
