Previously, Microsoft announced that Win7 and Win8.1 users could upgrade within one year after the Windows 10 was released for free, but the subsequent statement showed that this free upgrade is limited to genuine users. The large number of domestic pirated users cannot get this treatment.

Today, Microsoft responded in the official blog post on this issue.

Microsoft said that free upgrades are only suitable for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 users who are authorized from OEM partner channels to purchase genuine Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 users, and the authorization has not been tampered with.

When Microsoft cannot verify whether Windows is installed and has a corresponding genuine authorization permit, and is not tampered with, the system will create a watermark on the computer desktop to inform users.

In addition, Microsoft has determined that Windows 10 free upgrades will not apply to non -genuine Windows devices.But Microsoft will still provide these users with Windows 10.

We can understand this sentence that pirated users can also upgrade to Windows 10, but after the upgrade is not activated, or pirated.

In addition, Microsoft also stated that they plan to provide "very attractive Windows 10 upgrade plans" for old device users running pirated systems, and the details will be announced in the later period.

In other words, Microsoft should also provide a preferential plan for upgrading Win10 for Windows XP users, and the price should be very attractive.
