    that shouldn't happen.
    are you sure that 1511 iso contains pro version ?

    HWID is OEMRET, don't use VOL iso's. And a Multiple Editions ISO (Home/Pro), not education VOL.

    Code:
    en_windows_10_multiple_editions_version_1511_x64_dvd_7223712.iso
    Yours should be it-IT not en-US :)

    This. As long as no main hardware was changed on that machine.

    I'm running Enterprise LTSB to avoid those regular upgrades :cool2:. When you bind your activation to MSA there are some chances to transfer the activation in case of a hardware change.

    Sorry for the silly question, but can you still activate Windows 7 with Daz's loader and do an upgrade to Windows 10 to automatically recieve a legit Windows 10 activation?

    yes except for win7 enterprise, this edition needs either license key or kms tools for activation.

    Wow! That was super quick! I was expecting an answer by tomorrow (maybe). Thanks guys!
    I was about to upgrade with only lan drivers. Now I'll install them all, just in case :D
    Thanks again!

    Thanks for the clarification mehdibleu.

    I wonder if you could do that (which you can up to this point), but also link your MS to that license (Reactivating Windows 10 after a hardware change). If that worked, you could go W7(DAZ) >> W10 >> link license to MS account >> be able to fresh install W10+activate using MS account...??

    What is this sorcery MS uses to uniquely identify a PC for HWID? There must be countless of PC's with the exact same HW configurations.

    Every device/hardware has an unique hwid, msft combines some to get a hash for it and it saves it on their servers.

    For example, the hardware MAC address of the network card (and many other hardware components) is usually unique.
