It is on by default. That causes definite lag when booting the system and potentially at runtime. I disabled the service since I dont need it. No more problems.

Yep they have been on SP1 for a while. 2 of the machines are Win7 Pro and are fairly fresh installs with minimal additional software installed, AV, Chrome, Office & Media Monkey. The other is a 2 yr old install of Win7 premium with loads of crap installed across 3 hard drives. I have backups of the important stuff and I'm going to let it do the upgrade as is and see what happens. The Win 8.1 machine is done and is now a Win10 machine and working fine so far. This one is a recent OS reset, updated all the win 8.1 updates and have Chrome, AV, Kodi and PopcornTime installed. It's a Quad core J1900 Celeron I use as my htpc.

Only thing needed is a product key. In all likelihood, if you do not perform an in-place upgrade, and if you have an OEM license, you will need to install and activate the download with the OEM key, therefore perpetuating the OEM license. From what I understand, if you do an in-place upgrade, you are effectively converting your OEM license to a Retail license. Then later, you can use the new Retail key to install Win10 wherever you want - including on a new computer or a rebuild. This is what I have read, but the reality is actually up to MS.
