    If I try it and it fails will my win 10 pro still be activated or because I tried a new key, stuff it up?

    Once it is activated, the license itself should prevail, still might be a better idea to test in a VM or after 7/29.

    I am only asking because I thought with the pro version it gave you the option to download updates (not auto) yourself, as mine only gives me the option to manually check for updates, if it finds them to auto download them.

    Have a think.

    My MSA is being used for testing all builds and activation of legal/illegal Windows 7/8.*/10, now it remains unactivated for each and every build of Windows 10.

    Because there's no such thing as a GOOD antivirus program. They're all crap.
    Their only use is to block extremely old malware.

    It is OK. (Relax, man. My devices are all genuine OEMs. I just played to check it out.)

    For me. I did not say YOU.

    I haven't had a virus in many years, I do still see a lot of spyware floating around but very rare do I come across viruses. It seems like viruses are near a thing of the past, its all about spyware/randomware now as money making has become the incentive, not about having a stoned pc or a bit of a joke or coding something, old school viruses wwere actually extremely well programmed, tiny in size, polymorphic and mutating and actually more like real human viruses in nature.

    NS symantec, NIS 2015 (tried, very bugy atm), Kaspersky 2015/2016, Malwarebytes, Mcafee 2015 IS (sucks though, tried). I'm sure the freeware works too

    I updated with the esd's here form a Win 7 Pro install. Its activated but witht he generic key 3V66T. But reports permanently activated. Is this any cause for concern? Should I have used the OEM image?

    That odd I ask because I upgraded a customers computer with 8.1 core to 10 pro using the OEM image and they got a unique key. Maybe it was the same as the 8.1 one I cant recall I have to look at the licence backup. It this specific to 7 > 10 upgrades?

    I mis typed my last post the customers laptop was 8.1 core and upgraded to 10 home with a unique key reported ant the end of upgrade

    My laptop went from retail 7 pro to 10 pro but I got a generic key

    What do you mean by specific keys for Home and Pro. You say there is no cause for concern so I assume we will get unique keys from MS in the future?
