After a year of free upgrades,Pirated Win8 can still eat genuine Win10

Win10 genuine: Windows 10, a generation of operating system, will push a free upgrade on July 29, all Win7 and Win8 users can upgrade to Win10 for free within the first year, and get all the new features and function updates during the lifetime of Win10 for free. Therefore, users who are eligible to upgrade to win10 must upgrade as soon as possible, because free upgrades are only available within one year, and if there is no upgrade within one year since the release of win10, it will cost money to upgrade again.

Win10 piracy: Pirated users will also receive an upgrade prompt and can also upgrade to win10, but after the upgrade is completed, it is still in the "inactive" state, and it needs to be converted to a genuine version. Users of Win7 and above in China, regardless of whether they are genuine or not, can upgrade the system to Win10 for free through Qihoo 360 and Tencent Computer Manager, and Lenovo's 2,500 service stations and all retail stores will also upgrade for users for free.

At that time, Microsoft said that pirated users are still pirated after upgrading, and using a pirated system will bring a higher risk. Microsoft also pointed out that since many users are using piracy unintentionally, Microsoft also allows pirated users to upgrade. Microsoft also plans to work with a number of OEM partners to offer an attractive Win10 upgrade program for customers running non-genuine, older devices.

However, when Microsoft is unable to verify that Windows is properly installed, authorized, and not tampered with, users can still upgrade to Win10, but a watermark will appear on the computer's desktop. Non-genuine users are still non-genuine after upgrading, and the risk of malware and personal information leakage is high. Microsoft doesn't say how pirated users can upgrade, and it appears that pirated users may have to pay a fee to complete the upgrade.
