Hello!
I am selling a pre-built system for my friend and we are figuring out if he could still use his Windows 7 key to activate Windows 10 because of the anniversary update.
Would we need a new key for Windows 10 (keeping my key for my skylake build) for him or could he still use his Windows 7 key? He currently has a Windows 10 OEM. (Death to OEM)
AFAIK windows doesn't offer the free upgrade anymore. So you would need a win 10 key
Well darn, if that's the case...
Is there a cheap key around ?
Sometimes people sell them on the forums. Cant remember who tho
Hopefully I'd be lucky enough to get a key at an alright price. I wouldn't have to buy OEM just to troll my friend :c
Win 10 is still free via this loophole: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessibility/windows10upgrade
I remember seeing this on Paul's Hardware, and using it, if you've ever heard of the site kinguin.net, it has a, supposedly legit, windows 10 keys for about 20-25 bucks.

If you don't trust links just search kinguin.net and put Windows into the search bar.
If the exploit above doesn't work anyway.
