dunno what your problem is to be honest take a chill pill man

Again, you fail at reading comprehension.

Don't call other people's posts rubbish if you can't even understand them.

I understand perfectly well.

No you clearly don't.

If you are running Win 10 on a seperate HDD. You will need to upgrade your 8.1 to 10 and erase the Win 10 HDD.

Or keep that copy of 10 in the preview program receiving new versions.

I know I have said the same over and over have a read back.

They advise that it is a test environment and advise not to be used as main PC some builds have not been stable enough others are. 10130 is usable for 90% of what I do just can not watch movies on my tv without it skipping to the end 10 mins in then I just boot to windows 8.1 which I kept

Your options are test windows for the duration or clean install 8 and upgrade that way. Or do both

You will not be able to do an in place upgrade from either of them operating systems and the upgrade is not free for them anyway

Computers do not need a licence what they are saying there makes no sense

If you no longer want to test you have to have a valid windows key for 7 or 8

I am simply going to continue as an Insider I doubt the rollouts will be that often and past RTM I will switch to slow ring .

There found them for you

Nothing I have said in this thread is wrong

Nowhere in the EULA is there a clause that says you have to have a licensed computer all we have is a blog post

A Operating system license is for the software not the computer a computer does not need a license some software does

A Clean direct install of the insider preview will continue to work after RTM on a basis of the user continuing to test the operating systems new builds

All correct I know my subject not sure about some of the rest of ya

No your computer doesn't need to be licenced but by installing the OS whether its the preview or bought copy, you are licensing that computer and effectively agreeing to the T&Cs.

The EULA is you agreeing to abide their rules when you install their software. So in effect that then gives you permission to install and run that software.

Which means your PC then has a licence. When you buy Windows you are buying the software licence or key and whatever machine you install it on is then licensed to use that.

So in effect what you said is wrong.

hahahaha the PC is running software with a license the user has the license sometimes the software is tied to the machine sometimes it is not and can be transfered but can only be used once unless a VLE and as I have kept saying I have abided with the EULA so I am not wrong at all

We will just all have to agree to disagree.
