Windows 10 May 2020 Update
Technical support for Windows 7 ended in January which means Microsoft wants those that have not jumped on the bandwagon to upgrade to Windows 10 now. Windows 7 users who choose not to upgrade to the new version will no longer be able to get Microsoft's security updates or fixes, or technical support for any issues, leaving your computer at greater risk from viruses and malware.
Here is how to get Windows 10 for free, if you are currently running a licensed and activated copy of Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 Home or Pro:
1. Go to the Download Windows 10 website.
2. Under Create Windows 10 installation media, click Download tool now and Run.
3. Choose Upgrade this PC now, assuming this is the only PC you're upgrading. (If you are upgrading a different machine, choose Create installation media for another PC, and save the installation files.)
4. Follow the prompts.
5. When the upgrade is complete, go to the Settings Update & Security > Activation, and you should see a digital license for Windows 10.
