Get Windows 7 Here

  • Articolo

Windows 7 is available for download this morning. You can go here ( https://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/download.aspx ) as your starting point. The RC will be available at least through until the end of July 2009 and there is no limit on the number of product keys.

Just to be aware, this is not the RTM code, so this RC will expire on June 1, 2010 and starting on March 1, 2010, your PC will begin shutting down every two hours. Hopefully this will give you plenty of time to test this release.

What you need to know before you begin installing Windows 7?

  • If you’ve installed Windows 7 Beta on your PC, you’ll need to back up your data, and do a clean installation of the RC. Then you’ll need to reinstall your programs and restore the files, settings, and other information you want to use for testing.

  • Before installing the software please read these two documents for important information:Things to Know and Release Notes .

Things you need to have before you start:

  • Dedicated test PC: I would not recommend this RC on your primary home or business PC.

  • Data backup: Back up your PC before you start.

  • Antivirus program: Remember to re-enable the antivirus program when you are finished with the installation.

  • Internet connection: Makes sure you get useful security and hardware updates. We recommend you keep your PC set to automatically check for updates through Windows Update.

Windows 7 minimum hardware requirements

  • 1 GHz or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

  • 1 GB RAM (32-bit) / 2 GB RAM (64-bit)
