I'm not in the habit of installing software I'll not use. ;-)

If your laptop came pre-installed with Win7 (i.e Dell or HP or Lenovo
etc.) your licence will be in the BIOS already and W10 should re-licence
itself when it reboots after installing drivers etc.

The upgrade CD I bought came with a key, which wasn't needed.
