upgraded to 10 pro from 7 - Micha

Posted: Feb 13th, 2020 - 11:54 am In Reply to: Windows 7 - MT1013

I upgraded to Windows 10 for free using a link from a tech friend. The install was easy as long as my peripheral hardware was disconnected, such as a wireless mouse. The install took less time than I anticipated. After the install, my computer does not look any different, and by that I mean everything on my desktop and tool bar and items saved to my internet favorites is the same. I was afraid everything would be changed somehow with the upgrade. This is the link that is still available, or was still working weeks ago. https://www.cnet.com/how-to/windows-7-done-heres-how-to-get-windows-10-for-free/
