Just install 7 on the new hardware. You probably won’t like 10. And you’ll need to add about 200 IP addresses to your router’s blocklist (not the hosts file, because Windows ignores that) to stop the telemetry back to MIcrosoft.

I maybe wrong but doesn't windows 7 have telemetry too?

Oh right, they retroactively added it to Windows 7 so you can’t escape. I forgot, because of how terrible that is.

I know i'm gonna hate 10. But...eventually hardware compatibility will run out. Cant stay on 7 forever.

Besides, if you’re connected to any bid programs, they will eventually drop support for older OS, forcing an upgrade.
