Windows 7 customers get to download Windows 10 for free, but only for a year.

 

The Windows 10 download will be free for customers who are currently running Windows 7 or later versions, including Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1. But the download will only last for the first year of its release.

The important thing to note here is that Windows 10 is not a free upgrade for the first year. It’s a free upgrade for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 users within the first year of its launch.

 

The Windows 10 operating system is expected to be launched in late 2015. At the end of the free one-year window, users who wish to continue using Windows 10 have to pay for the software.

 

Correction: January 31, 2015

 

An early version of this research piece misstated that users eligible for a free upgrade for one-year who wish to continue using Windows 10 “have to pay for a subscription”. The payment terms for these users to continue accessing Windows 10 following their first free year have yet to be announced.
