Upgrade from Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 to Windows 10 entirely for free and using the official Microsoft web site.
Web site where you can upgrade to Windows 10:
www.microsoft.com/en-us/softw...
Microsoft is no longer supporting Windows 7. If you're still running Windows 7, you're at risk of attacks and viruses since there are no longer any updates or patches. Windows 8 and 8.1 are both still supported; however, since the upgrade is free, you might as well get onto the latest and greatest version of Windows.
On the web site under the Create Windows 10 installation media, click on Download tool now. This will download an exe to your computer. Click on this file. When finished, open the download and accept the license terms
Choose: 'Upgrade this PC now' then click ‘Next’
Choose ‘Keep personal files and apps’
Once installed, open: Settings - Windows Update - Activation to activate your Windows 10 digital license...
OR enter your (genuine) Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 product key if you haven’t previously activated your old version of Windows
If you’d like to check your license has successfully been activated afterwards, open: Settings - Update & Security - Activation.
Note: a Windows 10 license is tied to your hardware. As such, if you need to format your computer for any reason Windows 10 will reactivate automatically.
As full disclosure, I work at Microsoft as a full-time employee.

The process took about four hours to complete but when it restarted after the install, everything looked the same as it did before I started the upgrade. All of my shortcut icons were in the same place on my customized desktop, and the background picture was even the same. Thank you Kevin for this, it was totally seamless.

Great short video for an easy task. Worked like a charm after an hour of installation and reboots due to many apps and files. It is so pretty that I can't believe that I waited this long to let go of W7. Interesting to see so many others like me who either did not want to spend extra money or just wasn't ready to let go of their work station when you really did not have to. Thanks.

@sammyytube5999
@sammyytube5999 2 жыл бұрын
@@paulpassworth3322 I had a licensed Office 2010 with my W7, and I was willing to risk the function of it with the upgrade b/c it was time to move on. Fortunately, all Office applications continues operable to this day. Sure you will have to see the message that you are using an old version of Office; and that a file extension is being converted when you create or work with files from an updated office program. But you will always be able to work with your original files from W7 or the prior version of office. After the W10 upgrade, watch a couple of more videos to clean up some settings. PC is still running decently with good hard disk space after 10 years. Just could not spend the money on a new set during the height of a pandemic. But in the near future, I will splurge on a MAC. 😉

In June 2018, I was able to get Windows 10 Pro for free on a brand new PC I had built without ever having owned Windows 7 or 8.1. I was still using Windows XP on an old PC! There's still an option on that webpage that lets you create a media creation tool if you have XP or Vista and I simply put it on a flash drive and my new PC automatically booted to it. You just have to deal with a watermark in the bottom right corner of your screen that asks you to activate Windows, but it isn't that noticeable.

I installed Windows 10 on my laptop with your video about a week ago and worked great. And I left a good comment, well deserved. But today I've encountered a problem and after complete failure to get back into my computer I remember that you knew how to do a lot of things so hopefully you can help me. Today I want to turn on my laptop to a gray screen. I've done everything that's told me to do turn on off three times take out the battery and finally resetting the computer. it started reinstalling Windows after the reset got me to about 19% I think back to the gray screen again came back on again saying preparing went to the gray screen again. Twice I heard the welcome Melody but only the gray screen I figure you have to know more than what I'm reading on the internet there's got to be something I can do to get back into my computer. If you can help me I'd be really grateful.
