Hi all,

 

 

 

Our company are trying to buy some Windows 7, but we can't find it from any online store or even Microsoft Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC).

 

Anyone knows where we can buy it from? We want to use them to build our visualized Windows in VMware.

 

 

 

Regards

If you have an SA agreement with Microsoft, you should have Win 7 ISO downloads and keys in your VLSC account. 

 

I certainly do, just built a machine that way this afternoon.

This outlines it pretty well.  From my cursory read through, you just buy W10, and install whatever version you need https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/licensing/learn-more/brief-downgrade-rights.aspx

 

Looks like they only provide downloads for 10 and 8.1 so you need to dig out whatever media you have for W7 or order a disk
