Microsoft will also offer the new version for free to those who are testing the Windows 10 preview build and using Microsoft Account that’s registered for the Windows Insider program.

New Delhi: While the official release is more than a month away, Microsoft is constantly clearing out confusions about how it will be making the next version of Windows OS available to its users.

Windows 10 will be available as a free upgrade to those running original Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 versions. However, those running the counterfeit version will be charged.

In its latest announcement, the software giant has said that it will also offer the new version for free to those who are testing the Windows 10 preview build and using Microsoft Account that’s registered for the Windows Insider program.

Microsoft notes in its blog that once Windows 10 is available on July 29, registered previewers will simply need to upgrade with no charge. If you are running older versions of the OS- Windows XP or Windows Vista, you can install the Windows 10 preview and get the final version on the launch day.

However, if you are running the Enterprise edition of the Windows 10 Insider Preview, to upgrade to the final release of Windows 10 Enterprise you will need to download and activate it from Volume Licensing Service Center, as this version is not eligible for free upgrade.

What's your reaction?
