• Reuse of Windows 7 license after free update of Windows 10?

  Hi all!

  I was wondering if I'll be free to reuse my Windows 7 license key after the free upgrade to Windows 10 on July 29.

  I've already reserved my copy, and yes I'm very happy. The only problem I see is because it is a version of Windows 7 OEM for Sony VAIO, so maybe it will not work if I use it in a new computer? If I can in any?

  I hope that you guys understand my question and good day!

  Hello

  Your Windows 7 OEM license has become an integral part of the upgrade to Windows 10 process.

  If you cannot reinstall Windows 7 as a dual boot either in your Sony or move it to another computer.

  OEM licenses that you cannot transfer anyway.

  OEM licenses are tied to the first machine, on which they are installed and die when the machine that dies.

  See you soon.

• Windows 8 Pro transfer laptop broken again laptop w / Windows 8.1

  Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to transfer my Windows 8 Pro license (from a cell broken that came pre-installed with Windows 7 and then upgraded to Windows 8 Pro then 8.1 Pro when the update became available) to my new laptop.

  I still have the product key as well as the reception of the digital purchase of Windows 8 Pro.

  I currently have a new laptop that came pre-installed with the basic version of Windows 8.1.

  Thank you in advance.

  Edit: I'm hoping to do for Windows 10 pro once it is available.

  Hi Juan,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  The task you're trying to run is possible if you have formatted the drive in which you installed Windows 8 Pro and then install Windows 8 Pro on another computer and use the same product key to activate the operating system. You will only be able to activate using the same product key, if you try to install the same version of Windows operating system. This activation can be done by phone.

  For more information, see the suggestions provided by Rajesh Govind and Andre Da Costa in the Microsoft Community link.

• Satellite U940 - 12 c: Windows 8 license code?

  Hello.

  I own a Toshiba Satellite U940 - 12 c. Due to a sequence of horrific circumstances, I'm done with a laptop without Windows 8 and without access to the recovery partition. If there is no idea of how to make to access these data recovery, please tell me.

  But the question is: How can I get my copy of Notepad of Windows 8 license code? Is it possible?

  Thank you and goodbye.

  If you can access the recovery partition on ordinary road, there is no other way to do and saved on your laptop recovery image is useless. It is a pity that you n t have created a recovery media that could be used for a clean install of Win8.

  Maybe you don't believe this, but the license key is also useless and cannot be used for a clean install of Windows. This code is part of the original pre-installed version you got with your laptop.

  Best option for you is to order the original recovery disk and use it for Win8 installed. You can order it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  If you have any other questions you are welcome.

• Windows 98 license number

  can anyone answer me on this issue of license? My application needed to run on windows 98, but because Windows 98 is selling to the market, can we just install to use it without buying any license? or can buy us Windows 7 license, then install Windows 7 and Windows 98 together? Or how to fix this?

  Hello Ming21

  You cannot install Windows 98 without a product key and the key for Windows 7 will not work under Windows 98. However, you can use the compatibility mode to try to get apps for Windows 98 work under Windows 7. View the links below to understand how.

• Windows XP license for home computers

  If an individual has Windows XP on a computer at home, and they get a second computer for use in their home, can I use the Windows XP license from their original computer to install XP on their second computer? Or should they buy a second copy of Windows XP for use at home?

  If you have a version of Windows XP OEM (the one that came with a new computer), you can only install it on this computer.

  If you have a retail version of Windows XP, you can remove a computer and install it on another computer.

  If you want Windows XP on both computers, you must purchase a second copy.

• Windows could not transfer files. An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.

  Microsoft. It's so hard to get where you want to go on the site.

  I wish they still had the cat where you enter just a few things, and for free, it instantly opens a window of instant messaging to chat with microsoft.

  Well, I have a dongle bt USB and when I right click and click send a file, it gives an error

  Windows could not transfer files. An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used.

  With windows xp, I plug it and he can move 2 drivers, "microsoft bluetooth enumerator" and "generic bluetooth radio".

  in windows 7, it installs the same 2 drivers

  I pair the device from the phone and it didn't work. while I was looking for the computer and it does not even, but file transfer

  It works totally fine XP and with the same drivers! just different os versions.

  I went to Device Manager, click on set to update driver and he know that later is installed

  BTW, it's a generic radio bt, and it was $10 do9ller micro dongle.

  However, there is no brand name.

  but it works under windows xp? but not 7?

  Windows xp and windows 7 are duel boot, so it's the same material, b/c windows xp and windows 7 is on the same hardware

  If I use the VM vmware, I can transfer files

  Microsoft sucks... I mean except xp. He is old, but it's the best version of windows there, Runnin' on minimum 16 MB of ram and 400 mhz cpu... I luv xp, no more errors

  Hello

  Check if the same device works fine on another computer with Windows 7 installed. Also, try to send files from the phone to the PC and check what is happening.

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following link. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-the-registry

  You can try the steps below and check if that helps get the Bluetooth dongle to work.

  (a) click Start and then click Run.

  (b) type regedit and then click OK.

  (c) locate and then click the following registry subkey:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {e0cbf06c-cd8b-4647-bb8a-263b43f0f974}

  (d) right click on the folder, click on delete.

• UEFI and Windows 10 licenses

  I have read that with UEFI system, Windows 10 licenses are hardcoded in the UEFI firmware. This means that if I format my drive, wipe my recovery partitions and install 10 Windows from a USB key (assuming that it is not a recovery of my own drive machine, but an image downloaded from Windows written on it) it will be automatically validated and I'll have a legal installation?

  Hello

  If this is the same operating system supplied with the computer, it should work. It will go through a normal installation of Windows without having to request the license key.
