Activation of Windows 10 (clean install) from a Windows 7 Pro edition

Hello all,
I have a very specific question that i can not find an answer.

I bought a new pc and i want to buy Windows 10 Pro. I have found a very good price for a Windows 7 Pro license which will give me a free upgrade to Windows 10 Pro.

I will have the key in the following days but the pc is assembled and ready.

(1)Can i clean install Windows 10 Pro and activate it with the windows 7 pro key that has never been activated even for a windows 7 machine or
(2)should i first install windows 7 pro, activate it with the key and then clean install windows 10 and activate it with the windows 7 pro key

Thank you.

Hi Trod,
You can install W10 NOW and you dont have to activate it immediately, theres a 30 day grace period.
So when you get your W7 package you can activate it with the product key.
Windows 10 - Clean Install - Windows 10 Forums.

note your purchased W7 pro licence MUST be either System builder or retail or it will not activate

It is a FQC-007305. Is this OEM?

Hi Trod,
Had a look at the website, You will know more about that company than me.

if the key is one of the following then its a base FACTORY installed OEM key, and therefor non-genuine.

There are also other non-genuine codes being sold, the easiest way to check for these is to google the last 3 blocks of coding
and if there are multiple hits then its likely to be non genuine as well.

Thank you.

When i receive the key i will check it and post here if everything was ok.

Hi Trod,
If its not 1 of the above and does not appear on google
DO NOT post it.

Roy

Just to inform you, i got the key and upgraded to Windows 10 Pro plus the key is not found if i google it.

Thank you all for your help.
