Yes, there should be no problem. You should be able to upgrade to Windows 10 activated with a digital licence as long as your current Windows 7 is activated.

As it says at the top of this page:

To keep your computer secure you can still update Windows 7 to Windows 10 for free, see our Tutorial at Ten Forums for instructions

If you have switched from win 8 to win 7 for ease of use, you will come back very soon.

Is there any reason you want to downgrade to Windows 10?
I would think twice if the current one is working as it should, specially if Windows 8 didn't work for you.

If your drive is large enough you could dual boot Win7 & Win10, or add another drive.
You system specs don't help!

Yeah, if you have Win-7 properly set up, and running good, (and 99% of users don't!) why would you want to downgrade to Win-10?
:confused::confused:
Give me your PC for ten minutes, and you'd never want to upgrade it. My speciallity is tweaking and tuning a PC for max performance. But it's not something that you can't do for yourself, if you just do a little research.

Win 7 is a very stable and efficient OS. I do have Win-10 on several of my ten PC's, and believe me, 10 is NOT better than 7.


Happy Holidays!
:cool:
