    You've more time, EVERYONE in the world has about 16.5 hrs remaining as of now. I believe the deadline is worldwide--not midnight local time.

    People had a whole year to upgrade. All they did was complain. Now no upgrade. All they will do is complain. :dance:

    Enough said already. Some people would scold you for bringing it to their attention while some of them still believe Microsoft would waive their free upgrade after the deadline.

    Create an image of your current OS using Macrium Reflect

    Then upgrade to have your key upgraded

    then restore back the old image to go back to the previous OS without affecting anything

    Just a technical question: Since the world of Windows officially runs on Redmond time, or Pacific Standard Time, would that mean that people in the eastern U.S. have three extra hours, until 3AM EST? And people in Hawaii have three less hours, until 9PM Hawaii time? Just curious.
