#Convert to windows 10 free upgrade#
If you upgrade from a OEM version, it carries the rights of a OEM version. If you upgrade from a retail version, it carries the rights of a retail version. Because the free upgrade is derived from the base qualifying license, Windows 10 will carry that licensing too. If you upgrade from a OEM or retail version of Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 to the free Windows 10 upgrade this summer, the license is consumed into it. When I upgrade a preinstalled (OEM) or retail version of Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 license to Windows 10, does that license remain OEM or become a retail license?
