Hoping the people who work on MS software aren’t the ones who will create “artificial intelligence” programs that will determine our destiny.

If they keep trying, maybe one day they’ll get it right. Problem is, they won’t know.

i don’;t know much about this stuff, but just a thought, wouldn’t the source code for 7 be almost that of 10 too? if so, they likely wouldn’t want to divulge it-

you may wanna get macrium reflect which is free, and do a complete system backup now that you have windows 10 working after the reformat- just incase something fubars in the future- I’ve had to use it a few times, and it’s worked nicely- course i lost all the stuff i hadn’t backed up since my initial full system backup- but it was a lot easier than the whole reformat reinstall, update update update-

I use EaseUS Todo Backup Home 11.5 on my Windows 7 desktop pc.
The laptop with Windows 10 does not have this but does have a separate 2.5” hard drive where I backup my files to using FreeFileSync.

I used Windows-ISO-Downloader to get a later copy of Windows 10 that I had but yeah there were many updates.
