Knowledge of turning on Windows applications and settings
Knowledge of turning on Windows applications and settings
I'm checking how things are going with Windows. I got a digital license a while back, and Windows offered free upgrades to disabled people a few years ago. Honestly, there wasn't much oversight on this topic. The post I found said the application was accepted without any real questions—just asking if you're disabled and why you're here. It mentioned you've upgraded from low-end to high-end components like the motherboard, GPU, and Wi-Fi card, and even changed cases. From what I saw, none of those parts match your original build. You have keys for both professional and home use, and you've only ever had one activation with a Gigabyte board. You also have many devices across different brands, all using the same digital license—from laptops with Vista or XP to what's listed in your contract. How do you feel about this?
I don't really care about how text looks unless you change your browser settings. I'm not very careful with timing, and I wasn't meant to sound like someone quoting ancient Latin. My words are clear and easy to understand, so that's fine. I'm just trying to reach the people who actually read this, not just the general crowd. And honestly, my keyboard needs a new battery after reading my own post—do you think I should edit it? No.
I dislike Windows yet I can't avoid the huge market it has built. If a new operating system had similar features, it would still be useless without a user base for developers to create apps for instead of Windows. Therefore, if you can't address that scenario, your original question might be flawed.
If you want answers to questions, its better that others understand what you are asking. Even if it means that you are using bullet points instead. Now to making sense of what you are saying. You mean free upgrade from Win7/8/.1 after actual period ended? Actually they never shutdown the upgrading thing. You can still do that. Why they didn't have anything more than links? Because they want major share of users. And if you are among the ones wearing tin foil hats, they collect telemetry and sell that. Plus sell ad space. None of these are anything that would make sense. 470 is GPU model number, 320 I've only seen as SSD/HDD size. Yes, and? I've had this Win7 key since 2010. This is 3rd mobo I'm using with it. And now its upgraded to Win10. Whats your point? MS makes their own business decisions. They could make it much harder to users. Like hard locking OS like it was with Win7 and older, or hard locking OEM keys like it is with Win8/.1. But they don't. Rest is up to your own standards. Do you pay full price when you need to buy another OS or don't? Do you use service with little to no security when you know you aren't suppose to?
refers to the free upgrade condition for assistive tools like magnifiers or Narrator, which expired on December 31, 2017. The original page was accessible but the update link is no longer available: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/accessib...s10upgrade. It makes sense how changes in components could affect activation, similar to how Linux discussions about testing might impact Windows versions. With many devices and hardware variations, it’s understandable why this hasn’t caused issues yet.
Same situation again. The actual method and what was advertised ended two years back. The extended version you had was six months longer, until the end of 2017. Still, it's possible. But without proper context, it doesn't work. If your key is linked to an MS account, it will activate when you log in. Linus mentioned this in the video too. The goal of that video was to clarify why they skip activating the OS for tests—they have over 30 Windows licenses purchased at full price.
