I upgraded to Windows 10 from a Windows 7 VM in Player. Should I now change OS type in Player's Virtual Machine's Setting Guest Operating system's version (now shown as Windows 7 x64). I don't want to mess up Microsoft's activation algorithim i.e. will it somehow change machine configuration that Windows will think OS needs to be reactivated.
It should be safe to make that change. Once the OS is installed in the VM, it is really just a label.
You can/should make a backup of your VM before you make that change, in case something would trigger MS's activation scheme, you can just throw away the modified VM and restore your backup.
Hi Marty
I dont think it will affect anything as it is just a label .
