Upgrade to Windows 10 is Still Free

Microsoft may not appreciate it, so it’s unsure how long this trick will be available, but this is a totally valid way to obtain a free Windows 10 upgrade.

In addition, a number of small but meaningful feature additions make it more compelling to use a stylus the next time you fire up Windows 10. On the other hand, many chose to stick to Windows 7 as Windows 10’s predecessor, Windows 8.1 was disappointing.

This will become available when the Windows 10 Anniversary Update becomes available.

The Windows 10 Anniversary Update is being rolled out to Windows 10 PCs across the world in phases starting with the newer machines first. Microsoft announced Windows 10 Anniversary Update back in April this year, during its Build developer conference.

The Anniversary Update should occur automatically on your machine if you’ve already got Windows 10 installed. To start off, click on the Notifications icon appearing on the taskbar and then click on the option “Settings”. So if you want to find out what’s coming, hit up Microsoft now and get ready for the update tomorrow. Basically the update is so large you’re automatically downloading and installing a new Windows 10.

The Start menu now comes with a hamburger icon that offers access to your account settings, File Explorer, settings, and power controls.

Microsoft hasn’t given any hints on the timeframe for its next update to Windows 10. Users can now download several extensions available in the store.

With over 350 million devices running the operating system so far, the company claims it’s experienced the fastest update of any version of Windows.
