-This article will show you how to refresh a Windows 7 SP1 client with Windows 10 using Configuration Manager and Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT). A computer refresh isn't the same as an in-place upgrade. A computer refresh involves storing user data and settings from the old installation, wiping the hard drives, installing a new OS, and then restoring the user data at the end of the installation. Also see the MDT refresh procedure: [Refresh a Windows 7 computer with Windows 10](../deploy-windows-mdt/refresh-a-windows-7-computer-with-windows-10.md).

A computer refresh with Configuration Manager works the same as it does with MDT Lite Touch installation. Configuration Manager also uses the User State Migration Tool (USMT) from the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) 10 in the background. A computer refresh with Configuration Manager has the following steps:

In this article, you'll learn how to replace a Windows 7 SP1 computer using Microsoft Configuration Manager. This process is similar to refreshing a computer, but since you're replacing the device, you have to run the backup job separately from the deployment of Windows 10.
-In this article, you'll create a backup-only task sequence that you run on PC0004 (the device you're replacing), deploy the PC0006 computer running Windows 10, and then restore this backup of PC0004 onto PC006.

Can I upgrade computers from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 without deploying a new image?
answer: |
- Computers running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 can be upgraded directly to Windows 10 through the in-place upgrade process without a need to reimage the device using MDT and/or Configuration Manager. For more information, see [Upgrade to Windows 10 with Microsoft Configuration Manager](../deploy-windows-cm/upgrade-to-windows-10-with-configuration-manager.md) or [Upgrade to Windows 10 with the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit](../deploy-windows-mdt/upgrade-to-windows-10-with-the-microsoft-deployment-toolkit.md).
