I purchased my PC from a friend a long time ago, and it had windows 7 enterprise installed. I've recently tried to upgrade to any installation of windows I did some research and some sites said upgrade windows 7 enterprise free download i would not be able to upgrade win 7 enterprise for free, and some did. This site however seems trustworthy and as far as i can understand, it seems upgrade windows 7 enterprise free download i should be able to upgrade to either windows 10 enterprise or education.
I tried to use the "media creation tool", the microsoft software for upgrading your os. When downloading the files to the usb i was faced with the option to download every single version of windows i've heard of, except enterprise.
There was even the option for downloading education. I downloaded Windows 10 Pro N however, as i thought that would be the one closest to Enterprise, even though i guess it's technically a downgrade. I did this because i couldn't find the download for win 10 enterprise, and frankly i thought it wouldnt matter, seeing it's a downgrade.
I tried to activate win 10 pro with this serial key, but it says that it's not valid. Im guessing that's because my key is for Enterprise and i installed Pro.
So now im not sure if i should try to find the download for installing windows 10 enterprise and try activating that with my serial key, or if there's any way to activate the windows 10 pro n i've already upgrade windows 7 enterprise free download, with the serial key i've got. I'd also like to know if not activating windows have any other consequences than the watermark and not being able to acess personalization settings.
I've tried calling the normal customer support as well as the volume licensing service center. Neither gave any useful information, and both numbers just kept directing me to the other number over and over again.

How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. In reply to Princess Mat's post on March 13, Gotta say i find it very strange that you can upgrade cheaper versions of windows free and not enterprise. Even if you downgrade from enterprise to pro or home. Maybe its just me but the information from that link seems to be very misguiding. I'll probably try another os then, but thanks for actually responding with decent information.
