I have a pc that has suddenly started showing the "this copy is not genuine" message. I had bought a discount copy of Windows 7 about 12 months ago. I should have listened to my gut and not bought it because apparently they are using non genuine keys and Microsoft finally caught up to this one and flagged it. I can give the name of the site if anyone wants to avoid buying from them or if Microsoft can sue them or something, but I'm not posting it here because I don't want them to get any publicity from me.
Back to the question. Can I now buy a fully licensed version of Windows 10 Pro direct from the Microsoft Store and do an in place upgrade or is the old software going to create an issue? I REALLY don't want to do a clean install if I can just upgrade.
I have found similar questions to this searching the web and this site, but I nothing seemed to be exactly the same so I wanted to ask so I knew I was getting a correct answer.
Thanks for any help.
