    Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 Install


    I have a old 32bit tablet that I want to give to my Sister-n-Law because her laptop got broke. Her granddaughter dropped it and broke the hinges off. It originally came with either Windows 8 or 8.1. I did upgrade it to windows 10. The version installed is version 1703 build 15063.1418. Windows update won't show any new builds so I assume this is the last build the tablet can run. I'm going to do a clean install and need help deciding if it would be best to install Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 version 1703. The specs are Intel Atom cpu [email protected] with 2GB of ram. I have downloaded the ISOs. She will only use it to play games such as MS solitaire, web browsing, email and occasionally letting her granddaughter watch YouTube videos.

    :)

    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.
