Downgrade rights not being respected by MS?
I'm trying to downgrade a laptop that originally came with Windows 8.1 Pro OEM to Windows 7 Pro. I called in to MS, gave them the OEM key, they confirmed it was legit but told me I had to buy a new Win7 key. I told them this was unacceptable as the laptop has downgrade rights, they "transferred" me and I kept ending up back at the same tech repeating the same tripe. Any ideas? Cheers
UPDATE: Solved it with this post!!! Thanks to someone on reddit :)
