Windows 10: Window 10 keys on aliexpress or similar

Hello people, I need to buy a Windows 10 key for my new pc, so I found versions at ~15€ on sone websites, but then I read about people buying them on Aliexpress and found out they actually cost around 20 cents, which is incredibly low. Now, I know they may not last forever, but I’m pretty interested in trying once to see if this thing works out, so my question is: if eventually my aliexpress key gets blocked from microsoft, what will happen? It never happened to me, because I was using a key bought from the store (I suppose) when I was a kid, and then I switched to Mac OS for the last 10 yrs. Anyway, to sum up I was thinking that if I just need to buy a new one it’s ok, because I just lost 20 cents. Sorry for long post

windows 10 key

Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

 

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.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
