No it has windows 10 my father bought it for my little sister off of eBay 

 

did he buy the pc off ebay? or bought the licence only online?

btw buying it off ebay is NOT EVER RECOMMENDED. they are 97% of the time fake and will automatically end the license after a few weeks.

To me that sounds like the computer was bought off eBay. And that is probably how they activated Windows on the computer. More than likely after about 180 days there will be messages about activating Windows I'd bet.

Yeah. They cheated when installing Windows on that computer and it is not a valid license. Kmspico was used to activate the machine. If that is removed, the license will no longer be good after 180 days.

That computer shipped with Windows 7. I would suggest backing up anything you need, installing and activating the version of Windows 7 that shipped with it then upgrade to Windows 10. It should activate then.
