Upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 while keeping files and apps
If you're still using Windows 7, you can upgrade to Windows 10 with a clean install and restore your files from a previous backup. You can accomplish this task using the Media Creation Tool or a third-party tool like Rufus.
Although you can also upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10, with an in-place upgrade without losing your files usually being the recommended method, there is always the possibility of problems and errors that can be caused by custom configurations, apps, driver incompatibility, and other issues. A clean install minimizes the chance of problems because you are erasing everything on the hard drive and installing a fresh copy of the operating system.
In this guide, you will learn how to upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 step by step and how to avoid any problems during the installation.
