Moving Windows Install to New PC (W7 to W10)
I'm about to upgrade my PC soon and I decided that the OS should be upgraded too. I'm currently on W7 Pro x64 and I plan to get the W10 Pro x64.
My concern is that I don't have a product key for W10 yet, but I heard that you can still install W10 even with a W7/8 product key. Is this still applicable currently? Assuming that it's still allowed, what would I do to make sure that my current product key is not tied to the this PC anymore so I can do those steps?
Current PC:
Intel G3258
Gigabyte Z97-HD3
12 GB RAM
Samsung 850 Evo 250 GB (current boot drive, will reuse this for the upgrade)
New PC:
Ryzen 5 1600X
Gigabyte AB350-Gaming 3
16 GB RAM
