    So...you want to update the software on your laptop from 8.1 to 10, and then somehow transfer it to your PC?

    Can't do it. The copy is locked per machine, caused I tried cloning the thing and it didn't work. I wonder if it would work if you swap out your hard drive.

    Retail can be transferred and OEM can't. Your laptop has OEM Windows so it won't be transferrable. :/

    I remember when people downloaded the os of Win 7 & 8 from online (yo ho pirate stuff) and you would be able to get a free upgrade with that. Don't know if that method still works as they might have fixed the issue. You can check online I guess

    Use a crack version of windows 7 or 8, then go on microsoft website and download the upgrade.

    Or try to find windows 10 iso on microsoft website, I found mine there (I can upload it for you). It's working and legal.

    Nope I'm not.

    The upgrade has been presented as a way for people with illegal copies to get a legal one.
