Microsoft licenses question

Is that the same as RemoveWAT? The approach is great, but I stopped considering it reliable after it became outdated and discontinued.

Instead of using an activator, try installing an old windows 7. (valid or not, doesn't matter to MS)
AFAIK you can still upgrade that legally to a win10 for free, despite that the time limit on that offer has passed.

He prefers a clean install over an upgrade, and so would I. Nice to know about that "amnesty", though, Microsoft must really want people to get on the Windows 10 train.

So you go from pirate W7 to legit W10?

I don't think it's still possible these days, unless I'm missing something here. I'm using Windows 8.1 here and the offer to upgrade to win 10 in windows update have gone.

There is a link in Microsoft's site where you can still download the upgrade. It's meant to be used for people with disabilities or similar, but it's the same thing and there is no verification process.
