I am totally confused by all the options out there. I do not run a business, but I do not like the home version of Excel (or didn't in the XP days), so I have Windows 7 Pro operating on a Dell XPS desktop computer with Intel Core I7.
What do I need to upgrade to Windows 10? I do not use apps, and do not have a smart phone. I do NOT use the cloud, I have a Simpledrive 1TB backup drive from SimpleTech by Fabrik.

Do I need a new Product Key, or do I use the one I have on my Windows 7? Do I need just one item, or multiple items to upgrade. i.e. License vs. Product Key, vs. Media creation tool vs. etc.
