As we had predicted on iGuRu.gr before the free upgrade upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 by Microsoft expired, the company continues to offer free upgrades from its older operating systems, tacitly now.
On May 6, 2016 we reported through the article / opinion “Windows 10 and Microsoft Success Story"
The real bet for Microsoft will be to maintain Windows 10 adoption when the free upgrade offer ends. The company reiterated today that Windows 7 and 8.1 users only have three months (July 29, 2016 is the last day) to upgrade for free, after which prices will be $119 for the version Home, and 199 for the Pro version.
However, we will not be surprised if Microsoft extends its offer. If it does not, the company's goal to install Windows 10 on 1 bits "in two to three years" is in danger of not happening. Almost one-third of the target has been achieved in nine of the 36 months. But if this rate slows down, Microsoft should extend its bid.

Remember that Windows 10 is a service. This means that they will be regularly updated with not only corrections, but also new ones characteristics. Windows 10 was developed in a very different way than its predecessors, and is still under development. To repeat the information that the company receives through it telemetrys of Windows 10, citing the continued development of the operating system.
Meanwhile, the data continues to fill the dumps of the company's big data.
For many reasons, Windows is still vital to the company, and therefore starting their moods pushed very aggressively to adopt Window 10.
After a bunch of Internet complaints Microsoft she admitted openly her aggressive behavior, but it seems to continue to promote its functionality, essentially disregarding what it had announced.
As it seems, the adoption of the operating system by many users (and essentially their removal from Windows 7) is more important than Microsoft's once again caught up with what it announces.
