    From Windows 7 Ultimate to Professional - Possible?


    Hey folks,

    Thank you for contributing to this great forum.
    For the past 30 days I have been using a trial/unactivated version of Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and I've decided to purchase the Professional 64bit version.

    Can I install Windows 7 Professional over Ultimate or switch editions without having to format?

    Thanks

    I may have found a solution

    UNAWAVE - Downgrade Ultimate to Home Premium or Professional

    If anyone has another one or one that he/she can confirm works let me know.
