This weekend, Microsoft with a blog post has fueled users who are hoping to get a free Windows 10 license.
The company basically revealed that Windows Insiders users running preview versions on their computers could have free RTM version of the operating system just to use a company account.
IGuRu.gr was one of the first websites to publish the news, but Microsoft seems to understand what caused and rushed to change the publication.
With an updated statement he published today in the same publication on her blog, Microsoft says the RTM version will only be available to users who have installed a preview version but the older operating software they used was authentic.
Below is the new modified paragraph
"As long as you are running an Insider Preview build and connected with the MSA you used to register, you will receive the Windows 10 final release build. Once you have successfully installed this build, you will also be able to clean install on that PC from final media if you want to start over fresh. It's important to note that only people are running Genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 can upgrade to Windows 10 as part of the free upgrade offer. * ”

The track we have underlined did not exist in the earlier publication. So everyone who enjoyed (along with us) should be aware that it did not change anything we already knew.
We begin to believe that Microsoft's ambiguities may be another marketing strategy, but they disappoint too many users.
The article was updated to paste the link below, as Microsoft seems to be unable to decide and change its statements constantly.
