Check if your Windows 10 upgrade is permanent.
Buying a retail copy of Windows 8.1 and getting the free Windows 10 upgrade in the first year might link your new Windows 10 license to your old Windows 8.1 license. This means you could install Windows 10 on other devices later, even after the initial free period ends. The upgrade process usually applies to the PC you initially clicked, but it’s possible the license transfers across systems depending on the setup. Let me know if you need more clarity!
