What is really nice about Windows 10 upgrade from Windows 8.1, Windows 8 or even Windows 7 sp1 is that it lets you keep and save all of your apps and personal files that existed in your previous Windows before your upgrade to Windows 10. No need to re-install apps/programs like Microsoft Office, iTunes or Firefox as examples.

Here's a few Side Notes:
1) The step by step instructions shown in my video will also work with any version of Windows 8.1 Home or Windows 8.1 Pro. These basic steps shown in my video will also work with Windows 10 Upgrade from Windows 8 as well.

2) I performed this Windows 10 upgrade from Windows 8.1 laptop from ASUS using Oracle VirtualBox so I can test and review many different operating systems on my computer.

3) The Windows 10 upgrade process can take up to a good number of hours to complete depending on your Internet speed, how busy Microsoft download servers are when you start the Windows 10 upgrade, and the speed and performance of your laptop, desktop or tablet computer system.

4) You can upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 10 but you must first upgrade Windows 8 to Windows 8.1 either with the automatic updates from Windows Update turned on or by doing a manual update to Windows 8.1.

Does it work with OEM pre-installed versions of Win 8.1? I tried other methods and they all failed. If anyone can help, thanks.

It might takes time but worth it! Never thought that I can update to Windows 10 by myself. I had planned to send my laptop to the shop for update. Thank you for the really good explanation video, I follow your steps and it was successful. Thank you so much sir 👍🏻

Thanks for replying, Nick! You didn't answer my question about if the license is tied to just the motherboard, or all hardware? Meaning will I be able to install a new hard drive at a later date without it messing up my license?
