No activation key available for Win 7 Ultimate update

Thanks

So ref post 14 will it still shut down ? And if it will or is likely would upgrading to Win 10 still be an option - just in case ?

Hi Arcadian,

W7 Home premium SP1 OEM can be downloaded from Heidoc.
just to make life easier link below is ONLY valid for 24 hrs, 3.30 tomorrow
Download it to your desktop -

As for the non-genuine system effects, the only process it stops are windows SYSTEM updates, security ones are still offered.

Many thanks, but like everyone else very busy too I think I'll see how things go for a while then if any problems arise and if it's still available upgrade to Win 10.

Thanks for all the great help and advice everyone....

Your Ultimate edition is not activated. You can not get free upgrade to win10 from that.
You are using using rearm, which is only temporary - that is not activated.

You have a few choices:

1. Free
Install the win7 edition you already have a key for. Use your key to activate. You would then be able to to do the free upgrade to win10, if you wish.Or you can keep your activated win7 for a few years.

Or
2. Expensive.
Buy a license for Win 7 Ultimate so you can activate it. You would then be able to get a free upgrade to win10, if you wish. Or you can keep your activated win7 Ult for a few years.

Or
3. Expensive
Forget about the free upgrade, and just buy a license to win10.

As I said in my first post I'm already using Ultimate or is Ultimate iso something different.... ?

Is this a windup?

Hi Arcadian,

I totally agree with SIW2.
We seem to have come to a stalemate on this Arcadian.
