Trying to do this in my laptop. Do I have to call microsoft? Laptop actually came with vista, but I had a free upgrade to 7 since it came out a couple months after I got the laptop.
Upgraded to windows 10 but now I want to swap out my hdd for an SSD. How can I still get windows 10?

According to this source it should still work
If you change Hard Disk or add a new hard disk, you will have to check whether Windows still shows activated. Though the Microsoft Answer Desk said that changing hard disks will not affect your activation, I recommend checking it out.
To check Windows 10 activation status, open Settings ? Update and Security > Activation. You can see the status of Activation there. If it says Windows 10 is not activated, click on Activate Now. That should fix the issue. If not, you will have to contact the Microsoft Answer Desk to activate on phone.
