Microsoft can’t make up its mind regarding free Windows 10 upgrades
M

Microsoft doesn’t seem to be able to make up its mind when it comes to the rules surrounding its decision to give Windows 10 away for free. After taking a while to clear up the confusion surrounding whether or not people with pirated copies of Windows will be eligible for a free Windows 210 upgrade, the company is once again confusing people with whether or not members of the Insider Program will receive free copies of Windows 10. 

In an announcement on Friday, Microsoft dropped the unusually generous news that it is giving away free copies of Windows 10 to anyone who participates in the beta Insider Program for Redmond’s latest OS. Sound a little too good to be true? You bet. As noted by Ars Technica, Microsoft has since sneakily updated its blog post announcing the move, changing some crucial language: “Previously it said that signed up members of the Insider Program running a preview version would “receive the Windows 10 final release build and remain activated.” Now it says only that they will “receive the Windows 10 final release build.'” Moreover, Microsoft added some clarifying language, saying that “It’s important to note that only people running Genuine Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 can upgrade to Windows 10 as part of the free upgrade offer.”
