I'm just hoping that will fix the issue with minimal downtime. I think what will happen is that it will detect that Windows is installed and will turn it to something like Windows.old.

Is there the possibility that an in-place upgrade would work?

If not, then you probably will need to rebuild it since keys won't work between versions. On the other hand, this happened after a hard drive replacement and the tech that rebuilt the machine used a volume license disk instead and it is now complaining that windows is not licensed.Дo you own the volume license? If so, then just activate it. That would be the case if the Volume license was from the manufacturer. SAs do this so they can image Win7 and other benefits.

The VL of Win7 is an upgrade license, not a full version, so if you switch to OEM, it does NOT give you an extra license to use. First of all, since you are licensed via OEM on the PC, you can legally use the VL version. I don't have time to waste on setting things up over and over again.Okay, I would say you are just wasting your time. I want to upgrade because in several months I will need to build a new PC and then I'll likely start fresh, and I have no desire whatsoever to start fresh twice in a few months.

What I do not want to do is install 10 fresh.

Have they issued an update to block folks from doing this? This used to work. Why is it detecting Enterprise N still after the registry changes? I have even tried different versions of Windows 7 Pro DVDs to get this to work, but still no luck. I've spent a couple hundred bucks today and Microsoft is blocking me from upgrading to 10 and I need to. It changed the registry entries just like I manually did. I then tried the Windows Downgrader tool. The Pro CD says that Enterprise N is not eligible to 'downgrade' to Windows 7 Pro. Sounds great, right? I bought a key to Windows 7 Pro, to downgrade my legit version of Windows 7 Enterprise N. So I read that if I downgrade Windows 7 Enterprise N to Windows 7 Pro first, then I can upgrade to Windows 10 Pro. I then ran the Microsoft tool to upgrade and it said Windows 7 Enterprise N is not eligible to upgrade to Windows 7 Pro. I bought a legitimate key to Windows 10 Pro today on Amazon.
