I've never done this before and had a question. Could I save the cloned drive...

I bought a new ACER computer w/win 10 and downloaded the old Ver 7 Classic Solitaire game to replace the *&ap games that came pre-loaded.
This all occurred early last fall. Since then, I've played a couple 1000 games. Over time, I've come to realize the games repeated. This was a shock, since I...

A volume control pop-up box keeps appearing top left of my Acer laptop screen where it overlays everything. Nothing I have tried will disable it. Worse still it then sticks the speaker volume slider on 100%. I have uninstalled any likely associated bloat apps. It disappears if I restart, but...

Afterwards, I'd have to reinstall the WIN8, and I assume that I'd need the License Key to reinstall it, right?

1. Could I use the same license key?
2. is...

When I got my laptop (Acer Aspire E1-510) it came with Windows 8. I had some really bad lag with this computer so it was recommended I go to Windows 7 which I did. Now, I want to try and re-install Windows 8, however, I do not have a product key... Is there any way to recover it?
