Windows 7 product key purchase

obezyana · 04-08-2015 07:24PM #1

Anyone know where I could buy a Windows 7 Pro product key? I have the install disc but the key with it does not work so I am looking for a new key.

Cheers

You could try this site, http://www.softwarebilliger.de/windows-7-home-premium/ not sure how good or bad it is. Or this one http://www.elara.ie/products/os.aspx?available=checked&ECatId1=663407&Desc1=Windows&ECatId3=663312&Desc3=Licence&ECatId2=665149&2P2ID=725&Desc2=Windows+7

I believe those keys are against the terms and conditions of Microsoft.

I think they rely on this ruling:

In a landmark decision, the European Union Court of Justice ruled in favor of UsedSoft, a used software licence distributor, that the reselling of used software licences is legal. According to the Court of Justice, once a software company sells a copy of its computer program, it loses its exclusive rights to distribution. This ruling is based on an interpretation of Directive 2009/24/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, dated 23 April 2009. This directive describes the legal protections for computer programs within the EU.

There are several sellers on Adverts doing it also.

I can only vouch for the seller I linked. Few friends got Windows 7 + 8.1 keys off him and upgraded + activated to Windows 10 fine.
