As you know, Microsoft notified Windows 10 is “the last version of Windows” and explained that they will be focused on the development of powerful and new features under the guise of software updates instead of building a new version. This means there will be no Windows 11 in the future. So if you are thinking about an upgrade, this is the best time to get it.

Windows 10 free upgrade
The representative of Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 10 is a free upgrade for all customers using a genuine copy of Windows 7 or higher. But this offer officially will expire on this Friday so do not hesitate to own it before it is too late. Your time is running out. After July 29, the upgrade will cost up to $119 for Home edition or $199 for Professional one. Personally, that amount of money is enough to pay my rent this month so there are no reason for me to deny that.
Should you upgrade to Windows 10
“Do not upgrade to Windows 10”. This seems to contradict the above analysis but that is the statement of security experts. They said that Microsoft has been violating users’s privacy from collecting their personal information like gender, age, hobby and Internet habits… without your permission. The options relating to sending feedback and data to Microsoft were enabled automatically from the moment that you installed Windows 10 successfully so most people don’t know about them. However, you can disable them in Settings/Privacy easily.
Install Windows 10 using ISO file instead of an upgrade
You can get the latest version of Windows 10 Professional here if you don’t have it already. If you have ever installed any versions of Windows before, I am sure you will have no difficulty getting started with Windows 10. If you are looking to install it with an USB flash drive, please consult the video “How to create a bootable USB stick”. The following are the detailed instructions for installing Windows 10.
Upgrade to Windows 10 using the ISO file
A clean installation of Windows 10
Activate Windows 10 without using any software
If you are using another version of Windows, please go to Homepage and select a suitable method.
Method 1: Manual activation
Step 1: Select the right key for your Windows.
Here is the list of Windows 10 volume license keys.

Step 2: Right-click on the start button and open Command Prompt (Admin).
Step 3: Use the command “slmgr /ipk yourlicensekey” to install a license key (yourlicensekey is the activation key you got above).
(*Note*: You need to hit [Enter] key to execute commands.)
Step 4: Use the command “slmgr /skms kms8.msguides.com” to connect to my KMS server.
Step 5: The last step is to activate your Windows using the command “slmgr /ato”.
Check the activation status again.
Method 2: Using a batch file
Step 1: Copy the following code into a new text document.

Create a new text document.
Step 2: Paste the code into the text file. Then save it as a batch file (named “1click.cmd”).
Step 3: Run the batch file as administrator.
Please wait…
Done!!!
Note: If you guys see three times the same error message saying that the connection to KMS server was unsuccessful, please read this post.
Check the activation status again.
