Trying to improve Windows 7 to 10 pirated windows

I bought my friends computer and it had an illegal copy of Windows 7 Home Premium download on it and I don't know how to activate it. I just bought a copy of Windows 10 Home (legal) on Amazon. How to pass? I can't find the Windows activate anywhere. If I have a legitimate key for windows 10 do I need to activate windows 7 first of all? Also, I don't have a CD.

You need to format the hard drive. Since your Windows 10 Home has a full version license, you can perform a direct upgrade from non-genuine Windows 7 Home Premium installation.

Because we do not know the State of the Windows 7 Home Premium license, you can choose the option in the configuration option 'keep nothing '.

  • Error code 80070005 when trying to update Windows using Windows 7 Home Premium

    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, upgrade from Vista on a Sony Vaio VGN-FW350D. The upgrade was promotional as part of the purchase of the laptop in the Canada.

    I had no other pressing issues which have not been resolved. IHAVE run the built-in Windows based Registry Cleaner (like a cleaner 'free') and the dreagmenter of disk as part of the troubleshooting process.

    I have tried everything I can find on the setting of the following problem:

    When trying to update Windows (ie. Download updates of security or Microsoft security patches, etc.), the following is displayed: "Windows could not search for new updates - an error occurred when searching for new updates for your...» Code 80070005. It gives you the 'Try Again' button, but who does not work either.

    Also, after running in a Fixit 'Microsoft' by default and aggressive modes, change my registration to God knows what state by applying other methods proposed CIHI, now when I try an update of Windows, the "last check for updates '"and updates have been installed"the both indicate '' never. '' BTW, I have the restore points before you make these changes, so no worries there.

    I would like to point out that, as far as I know, this problem has persisted since January 1, 2011, when I downloaded and installed Microsoft Security Essentials, which would not update or another. Before installing MS Security Essentials, I ran Avast, I have re-installed after removing Ms Sec Ess.

    In short, Windows update does not work, giving Code 80070005. Can anyone help solve this problem with me? Thank you...

    Ralph

    Hello

    Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates.

    If the problem persists, follow the steps mentioned below and the Coachman.

    Step 1:

    All first please confirm that you have logged on to an account with administrative privileges.

    To connect to the administrator account

    a. Click Start, right click on computer, then click on manage.

    b. expand local users and groups, and then click the users folder.

    c. right-click on the connection of the administrator, and then click Properties, and then remove that checking the account is disabled.

    Now, restart the computer and log on to the administrator account and try to update again.

    Step 2:

    You could disable your anti-virue and malware/spyware protection temporarily to see if they are contradictory with the update.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
     
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Step 3:

    Uninstall Security avast software, install the update day, then reinstall Avast.

  • where can I make suggestions to improve windows 7

    is there a place where we can make suggestions to improve windows 7
    and if anyone knows where you can you ask them to do an update / patch to allow users scroll through other windows that aren't active without having to click on it, a huge beast when I have a ton of broken windows.  Mac and linux have this feature, and I'd like to see some time on win7. Thanks to anyone who can point my suggestion in the right direction.

  • There is a dedicated forum where suggestions can be made to improve Windows 7?

    Hello

    I was wondering if there is a dedicated forum where suggestions can be made to improve Windows 7?

    I have a few suggestions for developers of Windows 7 which, if possible, I'd love to share with them. But I can't find a direct contact method or even an indirect method. I think it would be a fantastic idea for this to be open to the public to suggest ideas to improve Windows 7 forum.

    I tell myself that if Windows 7 is done to satisfy the general public, the public should be able to help, if they want to. Further, his study basically free market for Microsoft, even if they do nothing all that on board.

    I hope this helps, because I really like Microsoft and I want that they crush apple on the ground!

    Hello, I'm trying to update windows after installation and I get error code 80072F8F.  After looking for other pages, I checked my BIOS date and time are correct and Windows as well.

    Laptop: Dell VOSTRO 1510
    Windows 7 x 64 PRO

    I already activated Windows (silly me to check everything actually works) and I need a solution as soon as POSSIBLE.

    I needed Windows update to try and fix a number display adapter (card intel not giving not external display resolutions)- but that's another question.

    I hope that there is a fix out there somewhere in the ether.

    No anti-virus installed at the present time, no anti-spyware, no firewall.

    Repost: What were the problems you are experiencing that you thought that a "new facility" could solve?

    The foregoing notwithstanding, and since you neglected to install an antivirus application...

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!
