To billion is still far away, but after July 29 Windows 10 will no longer be free – dobreprogramy

The whole year giving away free Windows 10 is about to end.
 Microsoft officially very satisfied with the achieved by the new
 system penetration, recalled that after 29 July 2016 will
 able to “ten” only get a new device – or
 buy in a box, for only $ 119.
                         
                         
 

Apparently, already 300 million computers in the world working under control
 Windows 10. Is that a lot or a little? Despite aggressive strategy
 upgrade older versions of Windows to “tens” (which
 has produced many great memes), 2015 new system completed
 with a market share below 10%. In March of this year we managed to
 pierce the level of 20%. You can always find fault with the methodology
 research, and between the absolute performance of Microsoft and telemetry
 measurements of visits to websites can surely be
 abyss. But that was not the point.
 

300 million is the result of which is poorly to the original plans
 Microsoft, who mouthed Terry Myerson year ago announced that
 within 2-3 years, the number of devices running under
 Windows 10 will exceed one billion. However, we saw something
 another – sluggish growth despite giving away free. IN
 March, on the Build conference revealed that Windows 10 uses 270
 million users. So we have 30 million a month? As the company from Redmond
 He wants to reach the billion with paid Windows 10, this brand
 do not know, the more that the PC market is experiencing a collapse, and
 Windows mobile devices almost does not count.

$ 120 for the best Windows ever

So if you decide to replace the installed
 on your PC Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 on “best
 Windows in history, “July 29, it can be only buy.
 The official price is US $ 119.99 USD for Home version and 199.99
 USD for the Pro version. In our stores all depends on the version,
 Home buy from 460 zł, Pro version for about $ 1000 -
 differences depend mainly on whether we are dealing with the version
 optical media (cheaper) or USB (expensive).

Of course, Microsoft wants you to buy, but not Windows
 10 and have upgraded your old system as soon as possible. For this purpose
 He prepared a pretty neat video showing 10 reasons
 why you should do it.

There is, of course, not a word about the fact that thanks
 telemetry services will be better being followed, but let
 honestly – Redmond is not ashamed. Microsoft even
 boasted that in March the browser Edge Internet users
 used by 63 billion minutes, to play under Windows
 10 allocated 9 billion hours and Cortana answered questions 6 billion
 since its launch.
 

How to get Windows 10 as an upgrade?

Do you hurry you today to update? If so
 We remember – the best way to carry out this process
 is the use of an official tool for Windows 10 Media Creation
 Tool, which you can download from our
 base. It will check the activation status of the currently used version
 system. If the installation is properly activated, the Microsoft
 Store generated certificate will be associated with that configuration
 hardware that will be used to activate Windows 10.

Note: After activation, the system is possible to install it on
 purely using the ISO image. If the hardware configuration
 the computer has not changed, the system is activated
 automatically. If anyone after July 29 will lose Windows installation
 10, to which he was entitled (and which benefited from the time)
 You will still be able to repeat this process.

And what about the updates in the future? Here you do not need anything
 fear. Those who have upgraded their system in time, will
 get more newcomers prepared for Windows for free,
 including announced for summer Windows 10 Anniversary Update.
