* Window 10 FREE upgrade for Windows 7 or 8 Registered users ! *

Microsoft is still allowing Windows 7 and 8.x users to upgrade their systems (which must be activated) for __*FREE*__ to a Windows 10 of the same family.

Someone running Windows 7 Home, Home Premium or Ultimate can go thru it, and have a legal and Activated Windows 10 Home digital license at the end. A Windows 7 or 8 Pro install will upgrade to a Windows 10 Professional, fully licensed.

I have done it, twice, in recent days. And it's EASY, anyone can do it.

@design_RG Useful tool, but I would not recommend going to 10 if you have 7. Less control, less privacy, unpredictable updates.
Probably worth it for users that are stuck in Windows 8 laptops, though.

@gioypi Thanks for the reply!

I created that whole blog post out of trying to help people stuck with the older versions, once I discovered that this *undisclosed* program is still alive. Years after it was supposedly finished for good.

Running Windows 7 after the end of support date is a bit risky - unless it is a non-networked at all machine, so you can avoid exposure to attackers seeking un-patched new vulnerabilities.

Windows 7 was never too interesting for me, as I mentioned in another reply here I liked and used the Server versions (Server 2003, configured as a Workstation), they are made for stable and fast performance. I disliked intensely the eye candy in Win7, which I thought was to immitate the Mac OSX versions. Thankfully they dropped that and went light into the next versions.

Windows 10, I have been running since the Beta programme time, I have tow Pro licenses I won for running the systems during that period. So, I have seen it and really like it.

For me, it performs well, is stable and fast. I just made the update to the newest version, on this, my main work laptop, and was a bit tense; as it has a LOT of personal documents, projects, images, text files for many projects.

A full backup for peace of mind. Resized the system partition, taking more from spare, unused space on the SSD drive. All went well, and it is surprisingly snappy. I am quite happy. 😃

@design_RG True, it is risky to run 7 after the end of support. Still, I believe that advanced users that remain careful can avoid most dangers.
I am surprised you liked 10 since the Beta testing, it was quite unreliable at first. The first updates could introduce all kinds of problems. Of course, they've come a long way, so if they suit you, why not?! IMO privacy concerns beat the performance gain, but I do recognize there is one.
