I thought someone mentioned MS might decide to make Win10's price fixed at zero forever.

Windows 10 never came at no cost; you could upgrade from earlier big versions with the identical license.

They might? Do you have any reliable sources to read? I’m curious about how they generate revenue—though I thought their focus was on “W10 as a service.” Maybe I misunderstood. Your information seems valuable.

There were some whispers that Microsoft was developing a reduced version of Windows. However, I believe those claims were incorrect—it ended up being Windows S. It serves as a free upgrade (more like a downgrade) for the Education/Enterprise editions of Windows 10. This was mainly to integrate with Google Chrome books. But it's not accessible to regular users; it's reserved for enterprises, education, and OEMs.

The truth is closer to your question than you think. Windows 10 is genuinely available at no cost. You receive the full files and about 95% of its features without any charge. This might be what you read or heard incorrectly. Overall, however, a fully activated version won’t be free.
