I have already exceeded budget and do not wish to spend much more! I would switch to windows 10 at launch, so I'm eager to find a way for each transfer my license or get a cheap new. Please notify.

If I buy an oem version of windows 7, then download the free update to windows 10, will be just copying Windows 10 then also be oem?

Windows 7 Edition Home Premium license Pc refurbished
I have a PC with two license stickers, Windows XP Professional, and Windows 7 Home Premium refurbished OEM PC. One of them got a license written about key, another said only "for use on the value of a PC refurbished only, non-commercial, permission-only", but no license key. Why is it so? This machine's hard drive has failed and I want to get Windows 7 running again. I have a DVD with Windows 7 Home Premium disc which States that she is "allowed to use with the program of Registered Reacondicionador". As I don't have a key to this I can't activate the operating system on this PC, although if I understand the situation should be licensed. How can I solve this problem?
Ask the repairman for the product key as it should have been supplied with the system.
If it has been refurbished when you bought then they can always help, but they could charge an administrative fee as they tell you that the seller should have to include key product for sale for you.

Original title: guest for Windows 7 Home Premium account
Hi all
I would like to aid which has had to face the problem below and how it was fixed.
I have Window 7 Edition home premium and created a guest account with normal privileges that is turned on but cannot access with the error "Windows could not connect to the Group Policy client service" I think that the main problem is related to a policy because when put on the account to administer it in pop, error message says 'Cannot connect to a windows service' Please check group policy log.
Thank you very much in advance
Hello
Thank you for your time and effort to get back to us, and I apologize for the delay in responding.
Method 1 step number d makes reference to the present Details tab on the event viewer, where you can get the details of the error. First, search for the error which will be something like Windows cannot process extension Client Strategy Group-side and click on the error and then click the Details tab and make a note of the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) for the extension defective client-side. For reference, see the screenshot:
Now come to step f number , it indicates the location of the Group Policy Extensions so that you can check if the extensions shown in the case log and the Registry Editor extension have a difference. The path of the GPExtension is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GPExtensions. For reference, see the screenshot:
Let us know if the steps are clear to understand now. If this isn't the case, we will be happy to help you further.
Thank you.

original title: Windows7 Professional Upgrade
I just bought a new computer running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium with an upgrade to windows 7 Pro. I have the PIN # for the upgrade, but I can't get the site to come www.windows7.com/get key. How to pass?
If your PIN does not work, try the following:
1. check that the PIN has been entered correctly. PIN code is not case sensitive and is alpha-numeric.
2. make sure that the PIN has not already been used to obtain a product key. A PIN can be used only once to get a product key. If the PIN has been used, you can connect to your account with your Windows Live ID (if you have it when the PIN has been entered) to access your product key or you can check your email for the confirmation e-mail, that you have received when the PIN has been consumed to access your product key.

I have Windows 7 Edition home premium installed 32-bit update. How can I upgrade to 64-bit? Will there be problems of validation so I re-install from scratch?
