  • 'Upgrade to Windows 8.1 free' application in the store asks me to log on as an administrator - I am already an admin and I can not understand how

    When I go to the Store tile in Windows 8, I was happy to see the "upgrading to Windows 8.1 free". I read about this free update, but it has never been available for me so far.

    However, when I click on download, it gives me an error saying: "you must use an account with administrator privileges. I'm an admin on the machine (for example I can run a command as administrator prompt without giving any creds). So I am confused on how to proceed.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.

  • Questions about upgrading Vista to Windows 7 for free as it was offered once?

    Several years ago I got when I was with Windows XP I spoke to Microsoft and said I could use the 64-bit and 32-bit disk on different computers, by using the same product key, but there are certain requirements.  I think the 2 computers were to be in the same place and I was the owner.  I'm a little hazy on the rules, but I know that I learned that I could use both versions 32 and 64 different bits with the same key.  I have a desktop running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional and a laptop running Vista.  Both are registered for me, but the laptop was a gift from our son for the wife who is disabled and never leaves the House except for visits to the doctor.  It comes preinstalled with Vista, but there were so many problems with Vista, Microsoft offers an automatic upgrade to Windows 7 at the time.  I never took advantage of this because Best Buy, where the laptop was purchased, wanted to get paid to do the upgrade.  My wife is now having a lot of trouble with various programs with Vista, I have two disc of Windows 7 Professional, I received directly from Microsoft, a 32-bit and 64-bit.  There is only 1 button, but I learned the upgrade to Windows 7 was supposed to be free.  I have much more knowledge now and can install the update myself, but can I use the 32 bit disc and the very key to do.  Otherwise, I would use the 32-bit disk and get a new key?  Where can I get a new key for the Vista upgrade to Windows 7 for free as it was offered once?

    This is incorrect information, product key for 1 license 1, 1 computer.

    I'm a little hazy on the rules, but I know that I learned that I could use both versions 32 and 64 different bits with the same key.

    Yes, and you can use it to activate on the same computer architecture.

    I have a desktop running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional and a laptop running Vista.  Both are registered for me, but the laptop was a gift from our son for the wife who is disabled and never leaves the House except for visits to the doctor.  It comes preinstalled with Vista, but there were so many problems with Vista, Microsoft offers an automatic upgrade to Windows 7 at the time.  I never took advantage of this because Best Buy, where the laptop was purchased, wanted to get paid to do the upgrade.  My wife is now having a lot of trouble with various programs with Vista, I have two disc of Windows 7 Professional, I received directly from Microsoft, a 32-bit and 64-bit.  There is only 1 button, but I learned the upgrade to Windows 7 was supposed to be free.

    Sorry, but this offer no longer exist.

    The Windows 7 Upgrade Option program debuted on June 26, 2009 , it provides that anyone who buys a PC to a participant OEM or retailer with Windows Vista Home Premium, Business or Ultimate to receive an upgrade to the corresponding version of Windows 7 at a cost little or not.

    I have much more knowledge now and can install the update myself, but can I use the 32 bit disc and the very key to do.  Otherwise, I would use the 32-bit disk and get a new key?  Where can I get a new key for the Vista upgrade to Windows 7 for free as it was offered once?

    You will need to purchase an additional license.

  • Unable to upgrade to Windows 10 due to display and CPU Incompaitibility?

    OK, so it was after a much less powerful Pc, another Member of the family had, was able to get Windows 10 without a problem, but when I tried to upgrade it says that my CPU and screen are not compatible? Seriously? The two pieces of hardware are over $ 500 and it is not compatible? What is c? the PC in comparison was an old Alienware Area 51, acquired in 2003.

    My screen, assuming that that means that my graphics card is an Nvidia Geforce GTX 680 Galaxy

    My processor is an Intel Core i7 cpu 960 3.20 GHz

    It was high-end, several years back, and I don't have the money to upgrade these two pieces of equipment just to get Windows 10. If indeed, my hardware is not able to be used, then it seems that I am stuck with Windows 7, even though the support falls. What gives?

  • Legitimate request for a free upgrade to Windows 7

    I am new to this forum and am revolted by the attitude of the staff of the Toshiba customer support to my legitimate request for a free upgrade to windows 7, here's an email I wrote in which I would appreciate your comments on:

    To the right.

    I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with your response to my legitimate request for a free upgrade to Windows 7 see I recently spent more than £1,000 of one of your products.

    After having several problems with the Vista operating system, I telephoned your customer on December 4 and had a conversation with an employee who could not satisfy me as to why my machine was not entitled to an update free to Windows 7, as mentioned on your web site.

    He offered to take me up to a supervisor I agreed and that was connected to a female member of staff who tried to explain that my model did not appear in the "promotion". I couldn't sense in explaining, in the context of facts that my machine was of the same age and from the same family as those seen offer "promotion."

    This employee was still unable to respond or understand my question and said that it is not technical interested so I asked him to put me through to his supervisor and after 10 minutes on the line, I need to speak to Alistair Cook.

    Mr. Cook explained 'promotion' for me, but could not explain why my model was not an option, so he said he'd call at the time where he discovered why. What he has made some time after and repeated her account earlier with no clarity. He said he would do more research on the issue and send me the results.

    This contacting your customer support Office took a total of 48 minutes on the phone.

    Vista is of all intentions, a failure, a fact that you accept your offer of free updates to your customers, so why discriminate against some consumers and not others.

    I am a user of long-standing computers Toshiba, the Qosmio is my third laptop and I have always been satisfied customer support, not that it was greatly needed. So, I ask again that do you the right thing and give me my eligibility based on principles.

    Yours sincerely.

    Hi mate

    Very interesting point of view.
    But the fact is that not all cell phones from Toshiba are checked for an upgrade to Windows 7.
    Why?

    Well, I checked Toshiba European page
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> Windows 7 upgrade

    and there I was able to find a list of FAQS.

    One of the FAQ provides this info:

    _What requirements I must meet to participate in the program of upgrade? _

    + To participate in the upgrade program, you must meet the three following criteria: +.
    + 1. You purchased your Toshiba computer between June 26, 2009 and January 31, 2010. +
    + 2. Your Toshiba computer is one of the series of model to check on the Toshiba page. +
    + 3. With your Toshiba computer, you bought an operating system Windows Vista Home Premium Edition, Windows Vista® professional or Windows Vista® Ultimate Edition. +

    It seems that several criteria must be met in order to participate in the Windows 7 upgrade program.
