Windows 7 Reached End of Life in January 2020 meaning there will be no more Security Updates for Windows 7 making it insecure. Fortunately Windows 7 OEM Product Keys can still be used to activate Windows 10 and I demonstrated this in another tutorial video. However Windows 7 Product Keys were printed on physical labels and prone to fading. This video discusses the other activation mechanism associated with the Upgrade Install and instructs how we can use this activation mechanism with a clean install. It also proves that the activation mechanism for the free upgrade install still works. This also works with Windows 10 Version 1909, 2004, 20H2 and 21H1. Written Guide:
