| 1402263 | 2015-06-10 07:11:00 | Both my Surface and desktop have the upgrade reserved, but since I don't use my Surface on a day to day basis any more that'll be upgraded on day 1. My desktop will follow when I can be bothered. :p | pcuser42 (130) | ||
| 1402264 | 2015-06-10 09:24:00 | Windows 7 will upgrade for free if you have a retail key. ... I know that Win7 (retail version) will be able to upgrade to Win10 within one year from 29th July 2015, but what happens if my machine (motherboard for example) dies one year later? I can use the retail version Win7 key for my new PC; will I still be able to upgrade it to Win 10? |

| 1402266 | 2015-06-10 21:56:00 | We have four W7 SP1 computers that have all got W10 upgrade reserved. I believe that the upgrade could be up to 3GB, so may have up to 12GB to download. On unlimited fibre, so not a problem. What about if we were still on 4Mbs ADSL? I will probably wait for a few weeks before doing any upgrades. Hopefully most of the bugs etc will have been sorted by then. |

So that will (should) allow you to re-install after a year. But MS is only dribbling out info , perhaps so they can keep Win10 in the tech news with every snippet of info that comes out . So no one really knows for sure You will be able to download an ISO(install CD) , make sure you do that at some stage. So if you have 3 PC's , download the ISO , uninstall the Win-update that gives that Win10 upgrade flag to stop it autodownloading. |
