Windows 7 operating system and licence code

invalid@example.com (frankglo) — Sat, 08 Jun 2024 23:31:11 +0000

I have held on to Windows 7, to about the end of the year

I have a few concerns on Windows 7, and Windows 7 Home Premium.
I have a DVD with this operating system, 32-bit, and a valid licence code.
If I decide to wipe clean my laptop with this operating system, and re-install the same system from my disk and valid licence code, would Microsoft sort of "invalid" this, as Windows 7 is not "in their books" anymore. What would happen?

Another question, would all the...

Windows 11

invalid@example.com (dara) — Wed, 30 Jun 2021 23:44:27 +0000

News on Thursday... Windows 11 introduced.

Code:

https://www.techdriod.com/windows-11-improvements-features-over-windows-10/

Mixed feelings on this... better performance and some UI changes... but they are leaving behind older processors and motherboards, requiring Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) and a HD (720p) display. My newer laptop is compatible, my workhorse desktop with a i5 4440 4th gen chip is not. Machines over 4 yrs old will probably not be compatible.

11 Year Old Computer

invalid@example.com (cap wor) — Fri, 14 May 2021 09:15:14 +0000

My computer is 11 years old and still running Windows 7, can anyone suggest a new computer configuration using a tower. I'm not too keen on laptops. Gaming is something but not everything. Keep the computer lingo easy to understand, I'm not up on all the terminology. Building one is an option.

Really FREE PDF reader ??????

invalid@example.com (guest) — Thu, 11 Feb 2021 18:24:24 +0000

I know this is not the best site to ask computer questions, so if you have a good one for computer neophytes can you post it or PM me.

I am looking for a really total free PDF program, at least a reader/ file printer version. My Adobe X is no longer supported and I prefer not to crosslink everything I have with Microsoft or Google.

Thank you.

c/p
"Windows 10 Finally Surpasses Windows 7 Marketshare, Now The Most Popular And Used Desktop OS. It may have taken longer than some would have expected, but Microsofts Windows 10 is now being used by more people than its most popular predecessor, Windows 7.
This comes after the switch had already taken place among gamers who use Steam, but following the release of the latest numbers from NetMarketShare for December 2018, Windows 10 has finally overtaken Windows 7."

I have a Lenovo laptop that I want to reset back to factory specs. The procedure will erase all apps and programs and reload the original operation system which was Windows 8.1. My question is I have already upgraded to Windows 10 for free. After doing the reset will I be able to get Windows 10 back or will the procedure reset the laptop to Windows 10?

Got my Windows 10!

invalid@example.com (dara) — Fri, 14 Aug 2015 20:00:30 +0000

It started to come available for those who reserved their copy for Windows 7 and 8.1, and it just finished loading and configuring on my windows 8.1... about 90 minutes to complete, and this is during the business day.

I had the preview, but didn't do too much with it, other than to get familiar. We'll see how it handles my Windows 7 laptop.

Remember, you have a year to get it for free!
