I'm planning to upgrade her old PC with a fresh Windows installation. It has a Pentium from 2009, 2GB of RAM, and a 320GB hard drive. I need to decide between Windows 7 or Windows 10. I found a link suggesting Windows 7 ISOs on Kinguin, but I'm unsure how to proceed. Additionally, it's worth noting that you can use a Subway gift card to purchase items on Kinguin.

Set up Windows 10, it’s the latest version and offers better protection.

Start by installing the Windows 10 Upgrade Assistant on her PC to check compatibility. If it doesn’t work, simply install a 32-bit version of Windows 7 and upgrade to Windows 10 for free if needed. You can also use the Control Panel to switch back to Windows 7 if desired.

You can still get an upgrade without paying extra.

Windows 10 is fine, grandma doesn’t mind if it’s a bit less stable.

It looks like it fits all the needs for Windows 10... Plus, it’s perfect for your aunt.
