How To Upgrade To Windows 10 For ‘Free’ In 2021
Windows 10 still has problems but Windows 7 is about to hit the scrap heap (and Windows 8 is a pointless sideways move). As such, millions of users must soon jump to Windows 10 for the safety of their data and Microsoft charges $139 for the standard edition. But what if I told you there’s a legal way you can still upgrade for free?
Tip: if you don’t have one, you can buy a legal copy of Windows 7 or Windows 8 at third part retailers for a fraction of the cost of a Windows 10 licence. Home licences update to Windows 10 Home, Pro licences update to Windows 10 Pro, so choose carefully.
With that caveat out the way, here’s how you get your Windows 10 free upgrade:
- Click on the Windows 10 download page link here
- Click 'Download Tool now' - this downloads the Windows 10 Media Creation Tool.
- When finished, open the download and accept the license terms
- Then, move it into a bootable pendrive
- Go to boot option then click on windows and select bootable pendrive.
- 6.Choose ‘Keep personal files and apps’
- Click ‘Install’ (note this takes some time and involves multiple restarts)
- Once installed, open: Settings > Windows Update > Activation to activate your Windows 10 digital license...
- OR enter your (genuine) Windows 7 or Windows 8/8.1 product key if you haven’t previously activated your old version of Windows.
If you’d like to check your licence has successfully been activated afterwards, open: Settings > Update & Security > Activation.
Note: a Windows 10 licence is tied to your hardware. As such, if you need to format your computer for any reason Windows 10 will reactivate automatically.
Tip: if you change multiple components in your PC as part of a device upgrade, Windows 10 may mistakenly think you’ve bought a new PC and refuse to register the licence automatically. Thankfully, Microsoft has a simple process you can follow if that happens.
