Thanks Hades and marc2003 just wanted to clarify.

Just finished updates on w7 no other progs installed and it’s took 45.5 gig of space (seems a lot)

Will w10 take less space does anyone know?

Windows 10 takes less space than 7. Also activation with old key still works when I tried a few days ago.

Brilliant, was hoping someone would say they had done it not too long ago. Thanks
