Microsoft has ended up giving support years ago to Windows 7 and 8.1 which means no more free upgrade offer. If you are using licensed version of Windows 7 then there is no worry because Microsoft introduced a Tool which will help you to upgrade your Windows to Windows 10 and you don’t need new license to activate Windows 10. Your new Windows will be activated automatically.
Even if you are using Windows 8 still you can move to Windows 10 with that tool. Best thing about this you can move to Windows 10 with the same apps and folders you had in Windows 7 or 8 but it is good if you take back up of all your important documents, apps and data.
