    go from 7 to 10 rtm (10240) and make sure its activated, after that upgrade then you're all set as long as you use same edition

    @scandal1981 my 240 is fresh installed and activated and I was thinking about upgrading to 547 but was wondering if I fresh install 547 my activation would only last for a year right?

    10547 is not a GA or RTM, it is a insider preview, so the OS stops working after it's preview date expires.

    I doubt you lied, but at least it doesn't take you 20 times to understand the answer to a question like some.

    10547 is a beta build and its lifespan is time bombed for obvious reasons, your activation will still be valid after the beta build 10547 will have reached its time bomb.
    If you have no idea about the insider program and/or you're not part of it, please just stick to the RMT (non-beta) builds.

    Microsoft is offering a free upgrade to Windows 10 for the first year. It doesn't mean that once you upgraded to windows 10 and activated your free copy of windows 10 it will not be activated after one year. It means you get to upgrade and activate your copy of windows 10 for free during the first year. Past that first free upgrade year, you will not be able to upgrade and activate Windows 10 for free anymore; however, if you upgraded your previous Operating system to Windows 10 during this free upgrade year, your copy of Windows 10 will remain activated until the end of the Windows 10 life span. That is, of course, as long as you don't change important hardware components like the motherboard or CPU, or don't try to carry that free copy of Windows 10 to a whole new computer.

    In short words it means if I upgraded activated 240 to 547, my 547 would work till next year unless I uograde to newer insider build or downgrade to 240. That's crap!

    Like I said, if you have no idea about beta builds, stick to RMT builds. A New th2 RMT build that will include all the updates and new features that are in testing in the current beta insider builds you see on this forum like the build 10547 that comes in November, just wait with your 10240 RMT build until then.

    OK then I won't be upgrading to 547 will just wait until Microsoft will release updated RTM then will upgrade.

    Was thinking of upgrading from home to pro but what's the point if there's nothing better in pro vs home. The only useful thing that pro has is gpedit.msc rest like bit locker I would never use and would just have to spend time cleaning pro.

    I'm bored at home and kinda crap nothing to do. And now I can't even upgrade windows

    Grrrr

    You can always install the build 10547 in a virtual machine to check things out. Installing preview insider build for production, or long term, not a good idea.

    That's why crap @chris34 there's no point of installing 547 to check what kind of new voice cortana has got.
