Willy2 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 - It turns out that one still can download the ISOs for Win 10, Win 8.1 & Win 7. And it's all 100% legal, from the MS websites. MS only has hidden those ISOs rather well. Some smart folks even have made a tool to make downloading those ISOs much easier. The website "How to Geek" has all the details. http://www.howtogeek.com/186775/how-to-download-windows-7-8-and-8.1-installation-media-legally/ System setup: http://speccy.piriform.com/results/gcNzIPEjEb0B2khOOBVCHPc A discussion always stimulates the braincells !!!

Moderators mta Posted July 18, 2016 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2016 I've never found them hard to find. Still freely available right off the MS download centre pages; https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/software-download/windows7 and it provides the links for Win10, 8.1 and 7. As always, the ISO's are free and legal, you just need a Product Key or a digital entitlement from a previous version. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Willy2 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 - @MTA: That website only provides the ISO when the user has a retail version of Win 7, not when one has a OEM version. But the tool (see post #1) doesn't bother and provides the ISO, even when the user has a OEM version.
