Title: Windows 10 Post by: 4D on Saturday, January 16, 2021, 19:37:57 Are you able to legitimately download a free version of Windows 10 if your computer is still Windows 7, or do I need to throw my laptop in the bin?
Title: Re: Windows 10 Post by: Rapidflyer on Saturday, January 16, 2021, 20:11:53 No, don't do that, if you go on Ebay you can buy a Windows 10 licence upgrade from Windows 7 for about £3.

Don't know if that's true.
