Update 31/07/2015 Instructions on Upgrading to Windows 10
Windows 7/8.1 to Windows 10240:
Windows Vista to Windows 10130 to Windows 10240:
The initial upgrade to Windows 10 can be initiated via use of the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool.
Initially Windows 10 must be installed as an Upgrade over your existing Windows 7/8.1 or Insider Preview.
Your device will be registered as aWindows 10 Deviceduring the initial upgrade from Windows Update. Essentially its hardware profile will be submitted to a Microsoft Product Activation Server.*
Failure to perform an initial upgrade will result in an unactivated Windows 10 Installation.
* Attempted direct Clean Install will lead to an unactivated install because the system isn’t verified as a Windows 10 Device. You will need to Reinstall your Base Windows License, update it and perform the Upgrade via Windows Update. In other words directClean Installationof Windows 10 won’t work but theInitial Upgradevia Windows Update and aClean Reinstallationof Windows 10 will work. Initially I named my website DellWindowsReinstallationGuide as it was based on a Dell Windows Reinstallation DVD but the name is well suited to the procedure necessary to get aClean Reinstallationfor Windows 10. Clean Reinstallation = Clean Installation with Product Activation.

I will provide some information about the previous licensing scheme and the ability or restriction of downloading installation media. I will also provide pitfalls with each licensing scheme that users will encounter with the likely possible scenarios...
1. Windows 8.1 OEM
For a new UEFI/SecureBoot BIOS. Windows 8.1 product keys are embedded within the BIOS. A utility like RWEverything can be utilised to read them...
Hopefully Microsoft will take advantage of the fact that Windows 8.1 as BIOS embedded SLP keys and make them interchangeable with Windows 10 media...
If they done this and provided a direct link to a .iso this would facilitate moving from Windows 8.1 to 10.
If Microsoft do not provide a means of upgrading this way, users who purchased a system with Windows 8.1 with Bing or Windows 8.1 Single Language with Bing and do not have recovery media will be left in a situation where it is impossible for them to utilise the free upgrade as the Windows Media Creation Tool does not accommodate these editions:
It is also a waste of time, money and effort to purchase reinstallation media to reinstall an old operating system in order to migrate to a new one. Especially when Windows installation media can detect that there was a genuine key in the BIOS.
Solution: Install the Windows 10 Insider with a Microsoft Account to get a free upgrade to Windows 10 RTM. Microsoft are not allowing new Windows 10 Insider Devices as RTM is being released.
2. Windows 7 OEM
Windows 7 OEM on the other hand utilises a generic OEM SLP key and cert file, input from the installation media. There are markers present in the BIOS for 'Windows 7' however there is no unique product key residing in the BIOS. Moreover these markers do not have any distinguishability on Windows 7 OEM Edition. e.g. a Dell Windows 7 Home Premium Reinstallation DVD will install and activate on a system which came with Windows 7 Professional. The user will be incorrectly licensed but it'll work.
Their license depends on the COA affixed to the system however many/most COAs fade and users cannot get help from Microsoft or the OEM for recovering a faded COA. Therefore if the key on the COA must be used, many users will be stuck without help from the OEM or Microsoft.

On the other hand if a utility is required which detects the previous install. Users who went from Windows 7 → Windows 10 Technical Preview would likely have to Reinstall their Operating system in order to prove they had an original Windows OS. However it may be impossible for users who didn't backup their installations in advance using the OEM utility such as Dell Backup and Recovery, have a faded COA and don't have Windows 7 Installation media.
It is possible Microsoft will have a utility that certifies that their BIOS was Windows 7 compliant (had the Windows 7 SLP markers) and then provides them with a new product key, as mentioned there is no distinguishability on Edition; would a user with a Windows 7 Starter License get the same Edition as a user with a Windows 7 Ultimate license? Likewise for Windows 8.1 it is also a waste of time, money and effort to purchase reinstallation media to reinstall an old operating system in order to migrate to a new one.
Solution: Install the Windows 10 Insider with a Microsoft Account to get a free upgrade to Windows 10 RTM.
Microsoft are not allowing new Windows 10 Insider Devices as RTM is being released.
3. Windows 8.1 Retail
Windows 8.1 Retail has the Media Creation Tool which works well for all Retail versions:
An installer which prompt users to input their retail Windows 8.1 product key and issues them with a new Windows 10 product key would work.
It would be better if the keys were made interchangeable (in a similar argument to the OEM license).
No current issues with Windows 8.1 Retail.
4. Windows 7 Retail
Microsoft's deployment for Windows 7 Retail has needed work. There are the Digital River .isos which worked well for almost all cases but omitted some languages. These were never listed as download links on an official Microsoft website however and had to be found manually and listed by Jan krohn:
Now there is a new utility:
This new utility however has failed our preliminary tests on the Dell Community Forums:
It does not accept some retail keys from Amazon or from student discounted retail versions like software4students. If such a utility is used to issue the free Windows 10 Upgrade then many users will be misinformed about the free upgrade as it doesn't work in the bulk of cases.
Ignore the lack of Digital River .isos and the Microsoft Software Recovery Tool.

Solution: Install the Windows 10 Insider with a Microsoft Account to get a free upgrade to Windows 10 RTM.

I went to Dell's website and found that I can enter the service tag number to download a Dell Windows Recovery Image for Windows 10 Home 64 bit. There are two of them though, one that is 'for Dell' and the other appears to be standard. Anyone know the difference? I doubt the Dell ISO file would have device specific drivers so I assume that it just has the OS plus things like Dell specific software, recovery partitions, etc?
After downloading the two files (FOR DELL 6.1GB, STANDARD 6.6GB) and talking with Dell Home Support, they say the only difference is that the FOR DELL version won't ask for a product key after installation... Seems like a small difference for 500MB...
