Important: Support and security status of Windows 7
Microsoft ended general support for Windows 7 on 14 January 2020. The Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for business customers ended on 10 January 2023. Since then, Microsoft no longer releases security updates for Windows 7.
This license is aimed at users with specific usage scenarios: running older line-of-business software, isolated systems without internet connectivity (machine control, laboratory equipment), retro computing for collectors and enthusiasts, as well as test, training and development environments.
Not recommended for productive use with a permanent internet connection, online banking, email communication or the processing of sensitive personal data. For these usage scenarios we recommend Windows 11 Pro.

Note on the license type
This item is an OEM license for Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (Original Equipment Manufacturer, ESD variant). OEM licenses are permanently bound to the hardware (mainboard) upon first activation and cannot be transferred to another PC after activation. Delivery is purely digital by email – without a DVD, without packaging. Microsoft does not provide end-customer support for OEM versions; support is handled by Karinex. The resale of such licenses within the EU is permitted under the principle of exhaustion (EuGH C-128/11 “UsedSoft/Oracle”, 03.07.2012; BGH I ZR 244/97 “OEM-Version”, 06.07.2000). By purchasing, you confirm that you are informed about the nature of this license, the hardware binding and the current support status.

Frequently asked questions
What do I receive after the purchase?
You receive by email the original Windows 7 Home Premium product key, download links to the 32-Bit and 64-Bit ISO, as well as an installation guide in German and an invoice showing 19% VAT. Delivery usually takes place within a few minutes after payment is received.
Does Windows 7 still receive security updates from Microsoft?
No. Microsoft ended general support on 14 January 2020; the ESU program ended on 10 January 2023. We therefore recommend Windows 7 exclusively for isolated systems, legacy software, test and training environments or retro computing – not for productive internet use.
Does activation still work in 2026?
According to our latest tests, the Microsoft activation servers are still reachable. Should online activation fail, free phone activation via the hotline built into Windows is available. Karinex supports you in German throughout the entire activation process.
Which variant should I choose – 32-Bit or 64-Bit?
64-Bit for hardware with more than 4 GB RAM and newer software. 32-Bit for older PCs (before approx. 2008), 32-Bit line-of-business software or special hardware drivers that are only available in 32-Bit. Both variants are included. If you need a modern 64-Bit system with current security updates, we recommend Windows 11 Pro.
What is an OEM license?
OEM refers to licenses that were originally issued to PC manufacturers for pre-installation on hardware. They are permanently bound to the hardware upon first activation. You will find an overview of all available Windows editions in our Windows collection.
On how many PCs can I install it?
This license is intended for activation on one PC. Parallel use on multiple computers is not permitted.
Is the resale legally permitted?
Yes. The EuGH ruling C-128/11 “UsedSoft/Oracle” of 03.07.2012 as well as the BGH ruling I ZR 244/97 “OEM-Version” of 06.07.2000 confirm the resale of OEM licenses within the EU under the principle of exhaustion pursuant to § 69c No. 3 UrhG.
What about the right of withdrawal?
With the activation of the key, the right of withdrawal expires (§ 356 (5) BGB). For unactivated keys, the 100-day money-back guarantee applies.
