The adoption of Windows 10 continues to grow as Microsoft stops supporting its older operating systems. The company does not plan to release new versions of the operating system, only updates for Windows 10 itself.
With Windows slowly moving into what Windows calls a service (Windows as a service), Microsoft's long-term strategy for functional system includes two feature updates each year.
Windows 7 has already been withdrawn and Microsoft continues to support only Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. So it is clear that moving everyone to Windows 10 is the only way the company has it right now, regardless of its customers' disagreements. .
Switching to Windows 10 is the only possible solution if one wants the Microsoft operating system as it is the only version that guarantees ongoing support and security fixes.
However, the transition to Windows 10 is not one-click. For Companies, for example, upgrading from a previous version of Windows to Windows 10 entails large costs, such as hardware upgrades, but also upgrades to custom software they use for specific functions.
For consumers, the transition is much smoother, but everyone needs a Windows 10 license. Because Microsoft's ambitious plan for everyone to install Windows 10 is not cheap.
In the United States the operating system costs:
Windows 10 Home - $ 139
Windows 10 Pro - $ 199
Windows 10 Pro for Workstations - $ 309
A proposal published in the application Feedback Hub in Windows 10 asks Microsoft to make Windows 10 cheaper for the very simple reason that the operating system should be available to everyone. This is what Microsoft wants.
"People are already spending a lot of money on their computers to buy, or most importantly, create one. Most download Windows and leave it unlocked. You make a lot of money anyway, what is the cost of Windows? ”
“What do you gain from this? except of more money to bathe in them? If you don't free, make Windows 10 Home $10 and Windows 10 Pro $35. You'll probably make more money because more people will buy it, like me," the user says, asking Microsoft to make an operating system more affordable for everyone.
What is very important to know is that Windows 10 was offered as a free upgrade for all users of Windows 7 and 8.1 (supposedly for the first year after the release of Windows 10).
Today the promo is over, but the free upgrades continue for obvious reasons. And yes, the keys to Windows 7 can still be used To activate Windows 10, all you need is a genuine Windows 7 license. In other words, Windows 10 is already free for everyone, but Microsoft will have to announce it. Why is the company hiding? Do you think that at some point the promo will stop to make Windows as a service at the prices mentioned above?
Today Windows 10 Home costs $ 139 and the company's specific act is ridiculous and miserable. It is available to anyone who has the promo information that the operating system still works for free, and sells it to suckers who do not read technology news.
