Product: Pavilian dv6
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I bought Pavilion dv6 many years back with Preinstalled windows 7. I have recently upgraded to windows 10 on the same laptop. It is now giving the pop-up of Activate windows.

Q1. Can i activate this windows 10 with the same product key of windows 7 (Pre-installed)?

Q2. The sticker with the windows product key is not visible. How can i get the product key using my device model from hp?
