Windows 7 and 8 users will be prompted to upgrade to Windows 10 for free very soon
Windows 10 currently runs on more than 110 million computer systems all over the globe.
Now Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) plans to further accelerate its strategy to get Windows 10 on more and more devices by the turn of the year, focusing especially on older machines that run Windows 7 and Windows 10.
Microsoft has already offered a free upgrade to Windows 10, and this latest aggressive
strategy is a part of Microsoft’s plan to significantly increase the numbers.

Microsoft stated that from early next year, it planned to provide a ‘recommended update’, including an upgrade to Windows 10 in its Windows Update system. This means that on
systems with settings that allow automatic Windows Updates downloads,
Windows 10 will be automatically downloaded and updated. On other systems,
when a user turns on his computer, he will find an update to Windows 10 that needs approval.

Microsoft’s head of Windows and devices, Terry Myerson, said this update dialog will only be presented once to users, and Windows 10 will download and update the
Windows depending on the settings. He commented on pirated Windows copies and their attempts to upgrade to Windows 10 and said that if you tried to upgrade on a pirated
Windows, it says that the update is available only on genuine Windows.
He also acknowledges attempts to get around this setting, and he commended those
users who have purchased genuine licenses at the Windows Store for Windows 10.

Microsoft has stated that it aims to reach 1 billion systems that will run Windows 10 in the next couple of years, and this latest strategy will help it to reach this impressive milestone. Microsoft also aims to make the upgrade to Windows 10 easier for users who run Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, as users will appreciate efforts to simplify the process. As long as the update isn’t forced on the users with repeated dialogs, it will be appreciated.
