No, you cannot use a Windows 7 CD key to activate 10. Each activation key is tied to a specific version of Windows.

You can apply the Windows 7 product key to your new Windows 10 PC, but it won’t work directly as an activation method. The activation code is specific to the older version and may not recognize your new system. Consider using a valid Windows 10 product key instead for smooth setup.
I recall that information correctly. Just confirm the code matches the Windows 10 version you're setting up. For example, Home Premium works with 10 Home, while Professional and Ultimate require 10 Pro.
You can do that if you used that key to upgrade to W10 previously, otherwise it might not work, but hey there is no harm in trying anyway! (There is a chance it will work)
It works with any Windows 7 or Windows 8 key. I just completed it a few weeks back.
