Because by then, the key will be replaced with a Win10 key. Only after its upgrade is successful, can you then use the same key to do a clean install. If the Win10 tool/iso has a problem finding that key, it might terminate or boot loop or just revert you back to your old Windows (not without damage). You can choose to keep all part or none of your old Windows, as you'll see in the options, but you cannot choose 'clean install' until the upgrade step has completed.ĭuring the update process, since the key for your older Windows is embedded in that older Windows, the Win10 tool/iso looks for the old embedded license, on your machine: so YOU do not provide the key. This will ONLY upgrade on top of your existing Windows. So you have to boot in the older Windows, insert the usb/DVD and then on the latter, click its 'setup.exe'. So you have to clone your older Windows first, or effectively you lose it.

The official downloader will not allow you to do a clean install until you first upgrade the older Windows. Here, Win10 Pro, not Pro N (which again I assume is for server).ītw, Great video, Nick! Were you using Ubuntu?Įdited by brainout, 29 July 2015 - 02:56 the official release iso is not like our TPs, which are all activated now. So now it's on USB as both 32-bit and 64-bit versions: total size 5.57 GB. (I'm on Comcast Xfinity, so they must have ramped up the speed during last weekend's internet outage.) I'm downloading 'both' (whatever that means). Big difference.ĮDIT: 30 minutes downloading to USB. The webpage instructions say you need at least 4 GB, but the downloader says 6 GB minimum.
Will report back after doing all this, see how it goes. For it's not saying what the MSFT webpage says.Īlso, there's an option to download 10 Pro N versus 10 Pro, what's the difference? I'm assuming 10 Pro N means for network. Can change to English US, but since this was overlooked, I'm afraid the installer may be buggy. Also, its default language is 'cestina', Czech. Tool and Download Results: I can download 64-bit AND 32-bit only from a 64-bit PC.
