If you are planning to install Windows 7 on your PC, then you will need activation/serial keys. In this article, we have listed all the latest working Windows 7 Product Keys along with full steps on How to Activate Windows 7 using it.
After Microsoft launched Windows Vista in 2006, the OS was in huge demand and had features that no other operating systems of that time would provide. But that lasted on until the launch of Windows 7 which was 3 years after Vista and was made publicly available on October 2009. The Vista demand reduced and the demands of Windows 7 increased and some new features were introduced too. The Windows 7 operating system belongs to the Windows NT family of operating systems. After knowing all this information, I couldn’t stop myself from going more deeply into knowing about Windows 7 and as a result of which, I am writing this article to share with you the knowledge I gained.

Different versions of Windows 7
So, the first thing that I came to know about Windows 7 was that it has more than one version. Yes, I knew about the two of them i.e. Windows 7 Home and Windows 7 Professional but the research described a few more that I am sharing below:
- Windows 7 Starter
- Windows 7 Home Basic
- Windows 7 Home Premium
- Windows 7 Professional
- Windows 7 Enterprise
- Windows 7 Ultimate
All the 6 versions of Windows 7 had sub-versions of N and KN editions which has all the same features as Windows original versions but they didn’t include Windows Media related software.
