Upgrading for Windows Vista to Windows 7

Team info
Description If you're upgrading for Windows Vista to Windows 7, it should be a fairly easy install. You can do what's called an in-place upgrade as long as you install the same version of Windows 7 as you have a Vista. For instance, if you have Windows Vista Home Premium, you can upgrade to Windows 7 home premium. You can also go from Vista Business, to Windows, 7 Professional and from Vista ultimate to Windows, 7, Ultimate, any other upgrade like let's say you wanted to do something: wacky like go Vista Home Premium to Windows, 7 Professional you're going to require a clean install. Does that mean? Well, you can't just turn Vista into seven. You have to export all your data erase the hard drive and then reinstall all your applications and data.

Exe press Continue if you're unsure whether windows 7 will run press check. Compatibility online, though, really you should check that before you buy windows, 7 it'll.

Select upgrade windows will check compatibility and then begin copying files after a while, probably hours, not minutes. Your machine will start back up into windows 7. Now, once you're all set, you may find that some of your settings didn't transfer and got overwritten by Windows. 7 defaults. The most notorious of these problems is your taskbar program, so be ready to do some tweaking to get things just actually the way you like them. Also, since you didn't start fresh, some of the quirks in Vista may carry over to seven most of them won't over.
