Looking at poissibly dual boot with windoes 7/10
Hi
I have Windows 7 home premium on my computer.
I use a program called acronis driveimage for backups.
I want to keep windows 7.
If I do the free upgrade, can I run both concurrently.
The drive image could be put onto another bootable ssd and upgraded to windows 10.
Is this practical & possible?
Id so I could then boot from whatever one I choose.
Will it cause any licencing issues with microsoft?
Another option is to install another version of windows 7 (possibly ultimate) on the second SSD with a dubious key and upgrade it from there. I would prefer to use legal software though. I gained the impression that microsoft are not fussed if you upgrade from a funny version of windows to windows 10.
Has anyone done this. Has it been a problem?
