Upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 10 | FULL VERSION FOR LIFE

This simple guide will show Windows 7 users how to upgrade to Windows 10 for free! This legit method does not involve any cracking or hacking of Microsoft’s Windows 10 operating system. We do not support or provide guides to illegal pirated versions of software…ever!

Additionally, this method is fully supported by Microsoft. When using this method to upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 10, users will have a fully active Windows 10 product key!

The Best Version of Windows 10 for Free

How to Upgrade from Windows 7 to 10 for Free

Step One| Backup

First, we need to backup all the data on Windows 7. We suggest using an amazing backup service like pCloud. They offer lifetime cloud storage for a one-time price… meaning you pay once and never have to pay a subscription fee again.

pCloud Lifetime

Otherwise, using an external backup is a great option as well. Always double-check all backups have completed successfully before continuing to the free upgrade to Windows 10. If all goes well with the Windows 10 install, all personal files and applications should transfer over from Windows 7 with no problems. Some older more outdated software might have some compatibility issues… but this isn’t too common.

Step Two| Download Windows 10 for Free

Next, we will be downloading and installing Windows 10. This is where the .Edu email address will come into play.

Go to On The Hub to download Windows 10. This site will allow users to get a full free version of Windows 10 Education. To get the free version of Windows 10 users will be asked to pick a college to which their .Edu email is associated with. OnTheHub.com will then send a verification email to the provided .Edu email address. Once the email is verified, the Windows 10 installer will be ready to download. After the download is completed, run the installation of Windows 10. This will generally be located in the download folder after the file has been fully downloaded. The exact file name will be “Media creation tool.”

Step Three| Run the Windows 10 Install

Lastly, run the Windows 10 install and follow the on-screen instructions!
