I'm using W-7 Home Premium on this PC. I've already activated the latest Shell on my other W-8.1 laptop (which is now W-10), it looks OK. Now want to upgrade to W-10 on this W-7 PC. I've downloaded Shell on this W-7 PC, shall I install it before I upgrade to W-10, or should I wait until I activate W-10? I don't know what to expect if the Shell happens to bump into the regular start menu of W-7 if I activate Shell before I upgrade to W-10.

I don't know if you can upgrade in place Win7 to Win10. You may have to do a clean install. In such case, you will need to install Classic Shell after Win10.

You can have Classic Shell 4.2.7 beta installed before you upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Even if Windows 10 removes it, you can reinstall version 4.2.7 beta.
