Does W7 need to have every download available to begin an upgrade to W10?


I would start fresh if need be but that would take about a full day.


If there is a point where 7 is at a level to go to 10, I'd like to know.

Hi Mike Lynch,

If there is a point where 7 is at a level to go to 10, I'd like to know.

As far as I am aware of, NO!
The reason I base this on is because the Win 10 downgrade has been available for years, many, many, many updates ago!

I hope this helps!
