Upgrading and why you should do it

Windows 7 has officially entered into its End of Life phase this year, and it looks like Microsoft is still allowing people to do the upgrade from 7 to 10 for free. This means that you can get the Windows 10 OS without paying anything for the upgrade from Windows 7 if you have a genuine Windows 7 license key that is.

While Microsoft has ended support for Windows 7 on January 14, 2020 – the company has tried to make it easier for people to upgrade to Windows 10, rather than them sticking with Windows 7 because with ended support, comes no new patches or updates for the operating system – meaning there will be no security updates as well.

The only way that users can get the free upgrade, however, is by downloading and using the Windows Media Creation Tool. The user can select the upgrade option from there, enter the Windows license key, and soon have Windows 10 running for free.

 

How to Upgrade in 3 Steps

  1. Download the Windows 10 Setup or Media Creation Tool to your PC.
  2. Ensure that there is enough space available on the computer before installation.
  3. Open up the installer and follow the on-screen prompts to install Windows 10.
  4. You’ll be asked whether or not you want to keep all of your personal files or start with a fresh Windows.
  5. Once the upgrade has been completed, you should have a new digital license for Windows 10, which is found under Settings > Update & Security > Activation
