I have three computers that should qualify for free upgrade (1 w/win 7, 1 w/win 8, 1 w/win/8.1) and I have not recieved the free upgrade offer...Does anyone know what criteria windows uses to select the upgrade recipients?

Will Windows 10 expire?

I read somewhere that the free upgrade to Windows 10 will expire after one year and that the user will then have to pay for the upgrade. Is this so? Alasdair

No, that’s completely wrong. Once you have installed Windows 10 and made a note of your product key, it’s yours forever. Well, you can use it until Microsoftstops supporting it, which is usually 10 years.

For all those saying payment will be required after upgrade.

I believe there is an upgrade advisor that tells you if your hardware and software are compatible for Win 10. If you had problems with win 7, 10 might not be somewhere you want to go without a hardware upgrade first.

Read somewhere that 82% of China is using cracked non-genuine windows.This Could get interesting if microsuck decides to shut down win 10 on non genuine PC upgrades after 1 year.But I'm sure that someone will crack it just like every other OS.

 

 

Also read that you can Upgrade from Win 7-8.1 and you have 30 days to decide if you wan to keep it.It will save your old windows installation files (or Recovery image) for 30 days before automatically deleting it.Or until you run the Disk Cleanup utility.

Not sure if I said this or not.. but in checking... you will be able to make Windows 10 disks one you upgrade. You can then do a clean install without having to intsall 7 or 8 again.

That is bad ass... because upgrading your OS sucks and makes it slow.

I did the preview and only one thing did not run. Nova backup program.

 

Microsoft has change their bottle. No longer are they try to make things incompatible, they are changing their model to make it like a cell phone where every application is regulated incompatible with your machine. Windows 10 will be for the life of your machine. Just like iOS or Android.
