Win7 (2018)

[CarbonLogic]

Hey guys, just needed a small clarification. I have a COA Win7 homepremium x64 key for my HP laptop. If I downloaded the win7 2018 iso, will i be able to activate it with the COA key?

it depends on how the Win7 COA key was activated

if it activates via online/internet, you're good to go.  if it fails internet activation with an error, call Microsoft
and activate by phone
