Windows 10 - Am I too late for free upgrade?

rhysadams

I meant to update my computer to Windows 10 whilst the free upgrade program was being offered by Microsoft. Does anyone know if there is a way I can still get the upgrade without paying the £99?

The FREE upgrade has finished, however I have no doubt MS will offer a huge discount for those wishing to still upgrade to 10.

There's a thread here that suggests a way to do it, no idea if it works though.

It's not stealing, because it's still free for those that use assistive technologies.
I guess those that don't and still download it are the same people who have black market blue badges and park in disabled bays just because they are nearer the shops...;)

The option to upgrade using a product key from Windows 7/8 was still working after the official deadline, and for all I know still works. Still worth a try, I reckon, and you don't need to be a user of assistive technologies (or claim to be one).
