    Here it is January 15, 2021 and I just upgraded my six year old PC that has been running on win 8.1 to win 10. 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.

So I activated it with a KMS activator. Then when I checked my version it was already Enterprise version! But when I updated it from 1904 to 1909 it worked but when I tried to download 2004 it didn't worked and also 2009. Then I tried several things but did not worked.

    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.

      @@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. 😉

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.
