What Is The Comparable Updgrade To Windows 10 From Win 7 Home Premium

Hello,

Dell XPS 8300 running Win 7 64-bit Home Premium needs to be upgraded since Win 7 is no longer supported.

What is the comparable upgrade to Win 10? Is there a Win 10 Home Premium, or is it Win 10 Home Pro? Is there an upgrade or is it a re-install? Most programs, I would assume, would have to be re-installed.

Please advise.

For Windows 7 Home , the comparable upgrade is Windows 10 Home.
You can only install Windows 10 Pro on a computer that was running Windows 7 Pro.

Thank you very much!

Do you know if this free upgrade still works?
