Still running Windows 7? It’s time to upgrade to Windows 10

It’s time to upgrade to Windows 10 now

Microsoft no longer offers support for Windows 7, time is running out to upgrade to Windows 10. and now the Microsoft has launched Windows 11. If you’re still running Windows 7 or Windows 8, keep in mind that Windows 11 will only be available as a free upgrade for Windows 10 users, not older versions. Anyone on older operating systems will have to pay to upgrade.


If you’re still running Windows 7, you can buy Windows 11 Home on Microsoft’s website for $139 (£120, AU$225). and only $20USD on keyingo.com . Updating to Windows 10 now will make future updates, like Windows 11, easier. But you can expect to update to Windows 11 soon because support for Windows 10 will end in 2025.

Windows 7 users who don’t upgrade to Windows 10 are already missing out on Microsoft’s security updates, bug fixes and technical support. So the best way to protect your computer from viruses is to update it now. We’ll show you how to download Windows 10 for free and give you the latest on Windows 11 computer requirements and a common Windows 11 error that Microsoft users are running into. And here’s what you can expect before upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11. This story was recently updated.

How to download Windows 10 for free

Here’s how to get Windows 11 for free, if you’re currently running a licensed and activated copy of Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 Home or Pro:


1. Go to the Download Windows 10 website.

2. Under Create Windows 10 installation media, click Download tool now and Run.

3. Choose Upgrade this PC now, assuming this is the only PC you’re upgrading. (If you’re upgrading a different machine, choose Create installation media for another PC, and save the installation files.)

4. Follow the prompts.

5. When the upgrade is complete, go to Settings Update & Security > Activation, and you should see a digital license for Windows 10.

It should be noted that if you have a Windows 7 or 8 Home license, you can only update to Windows 10 Home, while Windows 7 or 8 Pro can only be updated to Windows 10 Pro.

To get the best Windows 10 experience and take advantage of features like passwordless sign-on through Windows Hello, you’ll want to buy a new Windows 10 PC (or one released after July 2015) with all the hardware upgrades. If you’re a student or university faculty member, you may also be able to download Windows 10 for free, and get the Windows 10 Edu edition from www.keyingo.com
