Ealier announced that owners of Windows 7 and 8 will get a free upgrade to Windows 10 this summer and that it will support cross platform gaming (more on that topic here), Microsoft now feels generous and makes the free upgrade available to pirated versions as well.
Microsoft believes that in due time people will start to see the benefits of a genuine licence over a parites version of the sofstware.
"We are excited to launch Windows 10 this summer. Anyone with a qualified device can upgrade to Window 10, including those with pirated copies of Windows. We believe customers over time will realise the value of properly licensing Windows and we will make it easy for them to move to legitimate copies."
~Microsoft
Don't hesitate though, as the offer will only be available within the first year after the release. This goes for both the owners of the legitimate license and the pirates among us.
Are you a pirate? And will this make you reconsider pirating Windows in the furture like they hope you do?
Let us know down below!
Thank you foor reading!
