It works with Windows 7 - 32 & 64 bit, Windows XP, Window 8... I haven't tried it with Vista, but I have no doubts that it will work just fine.

This device is for transferring data only from the old system. Applications, programs and operating systems will have to be re-installed on the new system. However, if you are asking whether data from a Windows 7 system can be transferred to a Windows Vista system the answer is yes.

Yes you can , although it will take up more space on your hardrive, it is not necessary to install windows 7 as vista will work well, but if you desire windows seven there would be no problem.

Yes. I transferred all the user files from my old XP to my new win 7. Please note that it will not transfer the programs, just the user files. I assume that you have run the compatibility test to see what old programs will run under win 7. You may also have issue if you have set up win 7 to run 64 bit. If you have, you can sometimes have the program run as 32 bit. I would also download the latest version of Easy Transfer software from Microsoft. Good luck.

did you upgrade your current computer from vista to 7 or is this a computer that has only ever had windows 7 on it?

I do not know if Windows 8 can be transferred to another computer. I have never tried it or heard of anyone doing it.

Negative. These are 2 completely different systems. You can't upgrade from 7 to 8 for free. If it had Windows 8 installed, then you could easily upgrade to 8.1.

Yes, you can downgrade Win 8 to Win 7. Here is web that show you how to do it: http://www.crn.com/slide-shows/applications-os/240155734/how-to-downgrade-from-windows-8-to-windows-7.htm

Actually you cannot use it as this will only transfer from Windows (Any Windows) to Windows 7 sadly.

I haven't done any upgrades other than the auto upgrades for windows so sorry can not help you there

I did the upgrade, which was very simple. In all honesty the process was simplified by MS and worked great. My only other comment is that the 'learning curve' for Win 8 itself was not as easy as all of the other upgrades. This new OS is so radically different, that you will in fact be forced to work at learning it.

It's not an option with this version. You have to wipe the hard drive and install Windows 7 from scratch. So try and save your data off another drive or usb device.

Yes you can install any application that currently installs to win7. The interface is the exact same.

As long as you have a clean Win 7 copy, sure. Can you downgrade win 8 that's on it to win 7? No. They push out new systems with the new operating system to further that gen of software

No. You should re-install your programs by downloading .exe installers or using CD installers. This cable is meant to transfer documents, not applications. Also, be careful. It would not let me browse and select files to transfer. It located the MY DOCUMENTS directory and started to transfer everything there. I ended up cancelling it, then transferring selected files onto a thumb drive or an external hard drive, then plugging those into the new computer to transfer. Yes, it will transfer from W.7 to W.7. The necessary software is already in the OS, you do not need to install the software that comes with the cable. You just search programs and files, type Windows Easy Transfer, it finds the software. Do this on both computers and then it prompts you to connect the cable. There is an excellent instruction booklet with the cable that spells out all the steps.

Yes, it will give you the option to upgrade from a previous Windows edition (which will let you keep all your documents and personal media) in the installation menu. You may also wipe your hardrive and make a fresh install as well.
