If you upgrade to win 10 & activation is tied to your hardware & say your device needs a new hard disk would that disable your activation so as before if with windows 8.1 your hard disk crash you replace it & remain activated Its not about being happy or unhappy with windows 10 is about the rights you give up when you upgrade & replace your original License The Downgrade policy must be clear As The upgrade Policy so user know what they are agreeing to when they upgrade THEIR system
Totally agree with you but then you would have to look extract the Windows product keys from the BIOS but i have never had a hdd break on me so i personally don't know ..?
That's the only thing about this upgrade offer that sucks, they don't give you an upgrade key. At least with a key you can use phone activation when you replace your motherboard.
Yes The upgrade I got for windows 8 gave me a key I know I Paid a small fee But why have Microsoft appear to be going away from keys for activation As they often blacklist keys in the past As that said is it simple because piracy is more round KMS activation now Which they can change
Android and apple provide the OS for free.. They charge you a fee or subscription for the apps.. A company can not survive on selling 1 OS every 10 years.. The money (yearly income) is in the subscription fees..
I get why they do it, it just doesn't seem like a particularly sweet deal for a pc enthusiast. I change my motherboard at least once every few years.
When you published it my computer was restarting hahahaha. How many security errors has Windows 10 got?!
