Since June 2015 Microsoft has sent to millions υπολογιστές που τρέχουν Windows 7 και 8.1 μια application that prompts you and is supposed to make the transition to Windows 10 as smooth as possible.
The icon-application “Download Windows 10” quickly became very annoying for users who just wanted to stay with their operating system, since it could not be easily and simply deleted without a hack, like any application running under Windows.
But it seems we will end once with its icon Microsoft after the company μόλις ανακοίνωσε ότι θα καταργήσει την εφαρμογή “Λήψη των Windows 10” από τα Windows 7 και 8.1 στις 29 Ιουλίου, καθώς από την ημερομηνία αυτή και μετά παύει να ισχύει η δωρεάν αναβάθμιση. Μετά τις 29 Ιουλίου τα λειτουργικά συστήματα Windows 7 ή 8.1 δεν θα είναι σε θέση να αναβαθμιστούν δωρεάν πια σε Windows 10 και έτσι η εφαρμογή δε θα έχει κανένα σκοπό.
Details have not yet been finalized, but on July 29, the "Download Windows 10" app that makes it easy to upgrade to Windows 10 will be disabled and eventually removed from computers around the world. "Just as it took some time for everyone to get this application, it will take some time for it to go away." said a spokesman of the company at WinBeta.
Since the free upgrade will no longer be available, the only way for a user running Windows 7 or 8.1 after July 29 to get Windows 10 will be to purchase a license για το νέο λειτουργικό σύστημα. Η έκδοση Home θα έχει την ίδια τιμή όπως τα Windows 8.1, άρα θα κοστίζει € 110.
Microsoft seems to be holding the watermelon and the knife and that is why it is pushing the market with its decisions. If you decide to stay in the Windows you are running now the above news may sound pleasing to your ears. But if you are thinking of giving Windows 10 a try, you can upgrade for free and if you are not happy, go back to your old Windows in 30 days.
