Although I have already repeated this on several occasions, I would like to reiterate once again that Windows 10 is free for everyone, even if Microsoft does not say it openly.
Windows 10 for free can be obtained if you already have a PC with Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, proceeding with the update.
The operating system download can be done from the Windows 10 direct download page.
While previously the page trick could be used for customers who use assistive technology to download Windows 10 for free with valid activation and legal license, it is still common to make a free upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 or Windows 8 .

There are several reasons why I recommend everyone to update Windows 10 .
First of all because Windows 10 is the latest operating system released by Microsoft, for PC, tablet and smartphone.
In practice it means that Windows 11 is not expected, because Windows 10 is updated several times every year with the addition of new functions.
This fact is a decided change of course compared to the past, when to see new Windows functions it was always necessary to wait for the release of a new version.
Consequence of this change of philosophy is that those who install Windows 10 today will immediately download the latest version released and will therefore not have to proceed with the installation of heavy updates or service packs as was the case with Windows 7 and Windows 8.
Another reason to download Windows 10 for free is in the ease of installation, all automatic in the case of upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1, where you just need to start the Upgrade tool.
Speaking in a practical sense, going beyond the main functions of Windows 10, it is also important to underline how the installation through upgrade does not delete any file and keeps the installation of the programs already intact .
Certainly some older programs may not work and, in this case, if they are important programs for us, you can still go back and restore Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 from Windows 10, in a simple way, returning to the previous situation, as if nothing had been done.
At that point you can also use the Windows 10 reset tool to have a clean installation and delete all the programs on the PC
To switch to Windows 10 for free we have seen the specific guide that still in 2018 can be followed without problems.
So if we have a Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 computer that meets the following Windows 10 requirements, i.e. at least 2 GB of RAM, at least 20 GB of free disk space, 1 GHz processor, PAE, NX and SSE2 support and a card graphics that support Microsoft DirectX 9 and WDDM drivers (in practice if you don't have a PC older than 8 or 10 years), we can go to the page //www.microsoft.com/it-it/software-download/Windows10, press the Update Now button to download the Windows10Upgrade.exe file.
Start the installation file and let the update tool proceed with the system download and installation, all without the user having to intervene.
After about an hour and a half, you will have a Windows 10 PC, with a genuine copy, with all the files intact and the programs running, without having to buy a new license.
Remember that even if you don't upgrade from Windows 7 or 8, you can always buy a Windows 10 license for a few Euros .
