Win7 Repository-->Win10-->Reinstall Win10

just copy your users directory to a backup then fresh install windows and wipe everything
itll only affect the partition that windows is installed on so all your other drives are fine

either that or install gentoo

No I got what I want backed up, what I'm asking about is weather or not Windows on the new install is going to stay activated since it's already activated now (which if I'm understanding correctly means I'm hardware ID'd okay by Microsoft) or am I going to end up with an unregistered install and either need to find a new method for Win10 (which I haven't looked around for yet) or I guess worst case scenario I can downgrade to Win7 and then upgrade again after.

your keys get wiped
pretty much every iso torrent for windows 10 comes with a preinstalled key

If the installation was made within the last 30 days, there's an option in the recovery section of the settings menu and it should revert everything back to the way it was before it forced an upgrade. If not, and don't quote me on this seeing as I downgraded back to 8.1 after the 30 day window not 7, but you should be able to use your old product key without issues.

Just make an official bootable W10 install on a USB with Microsoft's tool. Then you can wipe the drive completely and do a clean install, it will activate itself once it connects to the internet. As long as you install the same region and version (home, pro) of W10 that is.

Alright so stupid question number 2.

Using this top option and selecting "Delete all"

Will that delete just the partition/drive Windows is installed in i.e. just the C: drive? I have two other 2TB drives plugged in, or should I just unplug them just to be sure. No one really gives any clarification on it anywhere.

It shouldn't touch the other drives but unplug them to be sure.
