Upgrade Windows 10 ke Windows 7

  • To upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, check system requirements.
  • Create a full backup of the current installation and files.
  • Download the Media Creation Tool from the Microsoft website.
  • Launch the setup and choose the “Upgrade this PC now” to upgrade.

You can upgrade Windows 7 to Windows 10 without losing your files and erasing everything on the hard drive using the in-place upgrade option. You can quickly perform this task with the Microsoft Media Creation Tool, available for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.

However, before proceeding, you have to confirm the hardware is compatible, purchase a license of Windows 10 (if applicable), and create a full backup in the case that you need to roll back. In addition, you want to make sure that the “Windows 7 Service Pack 1” is installed on the computer.

It is also recommended to uninstall any software (such as antivirus, security tools, and old third-party programs) that may prevent the successful upgrade to Windows 10. It would also help if you disconnected any hardware connected to the device, including printers, phones, cameras, external hard drives, and other USB peripherals, to help avoid problems.

In this guide, you will learn how to upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7, ensuring you do not run into issues during the installation. (If you prefer to upgrade by performing a clean installation, then follow these step-by-step instructions.)

Windows 10 system requirements

If you want to upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7, the computer must meet the minimum system requirements:

  • Processor: 1GHz or faster CPU or System on a Chip (SoC).
  • RAM: 1GB requirement for 32-bit or 2GB for 64-bit.
  • Hard drive: 32GB clean install or new PC (16 GB for 32-bit or 20 GB for 64-bit existing installation).
  • Graphics: DirectX 9 or later with WDDM 1.0 driver.
  • Display resolution: 800×600 minimum requirement.
  • Networking: Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapter.

You will also need to be running the latest version of your current operating system, in this case, “Windows 7 Service Pack 1.” If you do not have this update already installed, you can download it here.

You can confirm the version of Windows by opening the Run command using the Windows key + R keyboard shortcut, typing winver, and clicking the OK button.

To upgrade your Windows 7 device, you need a valid Windows 10 product key. You may be able to use the existing Windows 7 product key, but it may or may not work. If you try and see the “This product key didn’t work. Please check it and try again, or try a different key” message, you will need to purchase a new license.

Once you complete the steps, the backup files will save on the external storage, which you can then use if something goes wrong during the upgrade.

In addition to the system backup, you also want to create a backup of your files and web browser settings (favorites, passwords, and personal settings) to OneDrive or another cloud service or external drive if you need to restore them manually if the unexpected happens.
