Upgrade Home premium Windows 7 64 bit-to-bit window 7 ultimate 64
Hello
My laptop is running Home premium Windows 7 64 bit. My friend gave me a genuine key of Windows 7 ultimate. Can I use this key as an anytime upgrade of the window button to upgrade my computer in the control panel? If I update, what happens with my data and software preinstalled on my laptop? Thank you
If the key that your friend gave you is a retail key, you can use the Windows Anytime Upgrade feature to convert your Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, press ENTER. Follow the wizard screen, enter your product key Windows 7 Ultimate, click Next and reboot your system at the request and 10 minutes of your operating system will be upgraded.

Windows Vista Edition upgrade Home Premium Windows Vista Business
Hello
I recently bought a HP Pavilion dv6 1199EE laptop and it has a version of Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 system Type 32 bit installed.
Now, I want this transition to Windows Vista Business full Edition without formatting & reinstall OS because I don't want to lose the features & programs came with the lap top. I would buy the Windows Vista Professional with the product key on the local market in my country.
First of all, I want your advice what is the best Vista professional should I buy?
Second, what are the professional measures to update without formatting the hard drive of my laptop?
Concerning
Mr. Sayadi
You cannot upgrade Vista Home Premium to Vista Business.
It is not a Vista upgrade path.
You have clean installation, back up ALL your data and reinstall all the programs.
Upgrade paths:
-of Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate.
-from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate.
-from Vista Business to UltimateAnd there's no. Vista Business Ultimate version.
You will need to purchase a full version of Vista Business and do a clean install.
OR buy a Vista Ultimate upgrade version and do a upgrade.
If you do an upgrade to Vista Ultimate, it SHOULD be with a 32-bit Ultimate Upgrade disk.
There is only a single company of Vista, but you can buy the full version 32 bit or 64 bit OS and do a clean install...
All depends on the amount of RAM for the need to use.

I brought a home premium pre-installed 64 - bit windows 7 on my laptop and I want to know if I can download and update/install a 64 bit version of windows 7 ultimate on my laptop with no problems. As I have I need to just 60 days then uninstall the ultimate version and revert to the version Home premium. Please note that the Home Edition premium was preinstalled on my computer when I brought.
I would not replace the preinstallation of Windows 7 Home Premium, but what you could do is to download and to make a dual boot using the Windows 7 Enterprise 90-day trial which is equivalent to the Ultimate edition.
Windows 7 Enterprise 90-day trial - select Pro when asked for your history:
http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/cc442495.aspx
Please see the following article with useful information about dual-boot:
Yet once, do not replace your Home Premium installation, dual boot. This will allow you to remove it once the 60 days are up.
Also back up your computer before you attempt this:

Question about activation of Windows 7 Edition upgrade Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate
Hi all
I've recently updated the OS on my computer laptop from Home Premium (Windows 7) supplied with the computer (I have activated the product) to ultimate (Windows 7) using an upgrade key. Now when I turn on my computer it says 3 days until automatic activation or activate now. I clicked activate now, but I apparently don't have the right key. I tried the upgrade button, but I was told that it cannot be used to activate the operating system. I also tried my original laptop computer product key but I was told that it will not now work with my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. I don't know what I can do. What will happen in 3 days? Can someone tell me if I have anything to worry about and what I can do to solve? Thanks in advance!

Strange, strange.
First of all, where did you get your Windows 7 Ultimate license?
Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade came with a product key?
What type of upgrade, you did do, was an Express upgrade or did you do a custom clean install?
This is probably why you are experiencing the problem.
Try to update the product key and then again by phone:

"Can I buy" Microsoft Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade [Home Premium to Ultimate] "and use it to upgrade Windows 7 Professional to ultimate?
# Anytime Upgrade is specific edition. If Home Premium was the original OS on the computer and then restore it and then use the HP upgrade last month to THE or buy a professional for the last update.
Except if you have language packs that come with Ultimate I'd stay professional. Professional is expected to support up to 2020, while Ultimate is limited to supported until 2015.

Can I still buy windows 7 anytime upgrade home premium to ultimate?
Microsoft, in their infinite wisdom, seems to be making it impossible to upgrade windows 7 (the OS want) and trying instead to us force to buy windows 8 (BONE, no one wants to). All I want to do is add the functionality in Remote Desktop Host for desktop of my wife so that she can use its CAD software, sitting by the fire with his laptop. I see several key product available online from sources, which I do not trust. How can I get a key to upgrade without being constrained to Win *?

Windows Anytime Upgrade fell under the retail licenses, Microsoft took the end sales in October 2013.
You could try buying a code upgrade Express at amazon.com, if one is still in stock.

If its not available, you can buy Home Premium to professional, which includes the remote desktop:
Microsoft Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade (Home Premium to Professional) [Code online]
If this is not available either, your best option is to purchase an upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or ultimate edition retail and use the product key with the Express Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade Wizard:
Version upgrade - Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Upgrade
Version upgrade - Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Upgrade
You can use the product key and the Express upgrade to Windows 7 Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional Edition-full. First of all, check that the edition of Windows 7, you are upgrading is already enabled (if it isn't, you will encounter complications and that you might start all by performing a clean installation). Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click on the option enter a key, enter the key of Windows 7 Professional/ultimate at the request, click Next, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement, click on upgrade, wait while the software upgrades, (it may take 10 minutes or more depending on the if updates are required) your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify its update of the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a window will appear notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional/ultimate your files, programs and settings retained.
