Nearly exactly a year after launching Windows 10, Microsoft has begun rolling out the Anniversary Update for its new operating system. However, the story is not the same for those of you who have some assistive needs because Microsoft is still running the Windows 10 free upgrade for this special group.

If you want Windows 10 now and are ready to take advantage of the free upgrade offer, click the button below to get started. Update: The support page that Microsoft linked doesn’t actually now provide a way to download the ISO; instead, you can download the Windows 10 media creation tool and grab the ISO with the Anniversary Update from there. This feature can now be used to log in to websites and apps as part of the Anniversary Update.

Until now, Windows users who wanted to check Android notifications on their computers had to install third-party applications such as Pushbullet and AirDroid. Redmond based Microsoft has announced that the update for handsets will be out “in the coming weeks”, though a big rush isn’t something on the cards.

As soon as the update is available, users will be able to download it from here.

Either use a physical hard drive or back up your files to the cloud before downloading the update, just in case anything goes wrong. This is because the free upgrade offer has only ended for the general public, but it’s still available for customers who use assistive technologies.

Window snapping is great, but if you’ve got a smaller screen, virtual desktops are better. Once there, click on “Update & Security” followed by “Windows Update”.
