Where to download the Windows 7 upgrade with legitimate product key?

I bought a legitimate product key. Where can I download Windows 7 Home Premium Upgrade on the Microsoft site?  I can't find where to download my update on the Microsoft site? Can anyone help?

There is no download for Windows 7 unless you purchase a license on the Microsoft Store.  You should never buy a Windows 7 product key without receiving a genuine Microsoft Windows 7 installation DVD or a configuration of a Microsoft web site at the address authorized file. Carey Frisch

  • Windows 7 Ultimate 64 k product key not valid after more than a year of use

    Initially, I bought a Windows 7 Ultimate 64 upgrade as a student version. My computer originally had Windows 98. ten years later my hard drive died, and I learned that you cannot reinstall a version upgrade. (beware of the free windows 10 UPGRADE). I bought a product key of the online Microsoft Store over one year in January of 2015. I have finally is broken down and bought the key because I was advised if I never had to do a Setup again that buying a key meant I could without any other expenditure. It seems to work fine until I recently got a message saying that my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 is not valid. I called the Microsoft store and they claimed to have no trace that I already bought the product key from their part. After a few unsuccessful attempts to locate the original mail, finally, I scored. I received an email from a Laura McBride in the Microsoft Online store, with a product key and a link to a file in Dropbox. So I tried to do a repair and reinstall by using the information in the email. The Dropbox file will not download to my Dropbox, it said its too big. It will not download to my computer as it says that the .zip is too large. I'm reaching here. What can I do next?

    No third party or Microsoft Partner are allowed to sell product keys.

  • Cannot get administrator access to download the Windows 8.1 upgrade

    Hello.

    I have a new XPS8700.  I was able to download the Windows 8.1 since the MS. Store upgrade  My first problem is the lack of updates from Windows, I did, and now I can see the 8.1 update in the store.  I can also download updates to other access points.

    My problem is a continual notice whenever I hit the download that I must log in to an account with admin access.  Best I can tell, this and other forums have shown me how to add the Admin feature with the command prompt.  I even created a second account and did the same thing.  In the summary screen of the user in the Control Panel, the two users show "administrator."  But I still can't access

    I tried "net user administrator / Active: Yes" but also tried the same thing with permutation of my name for the administrator

    The real ' administrator' user cannot do anything in the App Store.  This seems to be what's supposed to happen.

    Does anyone have advice?

    Very frustrating to say the least

    Sounds like a bad set-up. I would advise to uninstall KB2871389 and put it back manually. Also uninstall McAfee and then retry the update.

  • known issues with the utilities for the Windows 7 upgrade Lenovo

    I have a Lenovo T61 Thinkpad with Vista Home Premium Service Pack 2 32-bit operating system. I have currently only about 1 GB of space on my hard drive Go 67.9. I wanted to get rid of Vista and switch on to 7 but currently I don't have enough hard disk space to do (I need at least 16 GB of free space).  I decided to buy a second hard drive and do a clean install of 7 so I hope I have less problems in the long term.

    My concern is that I ran the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor report, and he knew questions about utilities of Lenovo, ThinkPad EasyEject Utility and system update. On the Lenovo support Web site, it says that "you can upgrade to Windows 7 without uninstalling these applications, but you may experience problems when their running on Windows 7." When I looked for another application that supports Windows 7, as advised, I found that there are none for 3 known issues of as the cause of the problem is a «limitation of Windows 7» So what the devil? I hate Vista but I do not want to install 7 and then not be able to use my computer properly.

    I'm sure many users Lenovo went from Vista to 7... can anyone give advice on what to if wait if I simply ignore these known issues?

    Thank you!

    -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft
    -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on
    -OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

The sticker also eliminating product key removes any concern that the vignette could get damaged while at the same time eliminating the long and irritating the process of typing in various letters and numbers in the installation of the operating system.

    If the user has to reinstall the operating system on a computer with Windows 8, the installation process automatically captures key software product of the motherboard BIOS without input from the user. This means that these stickers familiar windows product key will no longer appear on Windows 8 computers.
