As is well known, Windows 10 was no longer free for those users who had a license for previous versions of the operating system. With the Microsoft promotion ended on July 29, there are still ways to use Windows 10 for free, here is how.

Three ways to get Windows 10 free

Update Wizard

Although the Windows 10 update period is over, Microsoft continues to allow people to update for free if they use update wizards for devices such as braille peripherals or special mice for less skilled people with their hands. Microsoft announced in May that it was going to give up the expiration date of July 29 for these users for an undetermined period of time.

Using an executable file it is possible to upgrade to Windows 10 for free with a special wizard that was only for these users, but in reality now anyone can use it and apparently it works.

Change the date on the Windows clock

One of the oldest tricks, especially in the times when 'sharewares' applications were downloaded that had a trial period that was commonly 30 days. Apparently this trick works with Windows 10 and it is possible to install it without problems by changing the date to July 28.

This method may very well work for a very short period of time until Microsoft realizes it, so this is an ideal time to try it.

With a 'non-genuine' copy

Currently it is possible to install and use Windows 10 without purchasing a license, the only restriction we will have in this case will be that we cannot customize various aspects of the graphical interface of the system, something that was present in Windows 8 / 8.1. To use Windows 10 without the need for a serial code is quite simple. From the Windows installation itself it is possible to omit the entry of a key and continue with the installation as if nothing had happened.

When entering the code, all you have to do is click on "skip" , in this way we can use Windows 10 without the need for a license, although it is not the most recommended option.
