I installed it last night, using the Media Creator tool. I picked the Upgrade option, purely as a test because it failed for me before. But after a recent BIOS update, it worked this time!
However, I want to do a fresh install. So I plan on doing that tonight/tomorrow. Can the 'Create Installation Media' option be done from within this Upgraded Windows 10?

Think RedLad was asking if he can use Media Creator tool in this (upgraded) version of Windows... Yes you can. It will create clean Windows ISO. ISO is not connected with activation.

Dunno, Andre. His statement can be read both ways.
Hi,
I read that we can still install W10 over W7 for free using W7 key. I installed W10 from the same ISO file I used successfully many times in 2017, but this time W7 OA key was not recognized.
Thoughts.....?
Thanks,

I don't want to update to W10 yet and I have read that I cannot keep my current W7 installation along with a free upgraded a W10 from the same W7 key.
So, if I do the free upgrade from W7 to W10 and then go back to W7, will I keep the free upgrade...

"I read somewhere that the free upgrade to Windows 10 will expire after one year and that the user will then have to pay for the upgrade. Is this so?...
