Η Microsoft eventually stopped offering free upgrades from Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 to Windows 10.
The "vacuum" that allowed upgrades of older systems to Windows 10, stopped working yesterday at noon, while in the morning the free page upgrade still had download left.
For the record in July 2016, Microsoft officially ended the Get Windows 10 program, which allowed anyone running a supported version of Windows a free upgrade in Windows 10.
However, the free upgrade offer remained open (in fact, like the fairy tale with Kapodistria's potatoes) for people using support technologies in Windows 7 and 8.1.
Of course, the company did not confirm whether all those who upgraded their systems were using support technologies.
Since yesterday, Microsoft has stopped offering free upgrade, and the official promo website he says:
Thank you for your interest in Windows 10. The extension of the free upgrade offer for Windows 7 and Windows 8 users who use support technologies expired on December 31, 2017. As an alternative, software and devices with Windows 10 are available for purchase from the retail store. ”
So from now on, those who use Windows 7, 8.1 and want to upgrade to Windows 10 have no choice but to buy a license, which of course costs. In the United States, Window 10 Home costs 119,99 dollars while the Pro version is sold for 199,99 dollars.
