    For Win 8.1 with Bing, the upgrade path is Windows 10 home, correct?

    Did you install it on the same machine that you previously upgraded?
    the process is this: LEGIT Win8 machine -> Win10 upgrade -> Win10 Clean install (skip key request).

    I have a question regarding licenses.
    I have some laptops with genuine bought win 8 licenses (when they were on sale). If I make an image before upgrading can I restore with activation working? Or is the license "consumed" by the win 10 upgrade?

    Can't say I have. System still boots up in like 5 seconds. Could just be that my ssd is really fast.

    one other question of interest:- we had at one time a "round" recycle bin, where can I find it? It looks better than this squared one.
    Thank you

    Hmm ... what answer you want to hear? I already linked in other thread to show, MSA is at least not mandatory. Your choice.
