If you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8, you should already have had an invitation to “reserve” a copy of Windows 10. If not, run Windows Update to see if any updates are available for your PC. The one you want is KB3035583. This puts a small white Windows logo – the GWX or Get Windows 10 app – in the system tray on the right hand side of the Taskbar. Alternatively, you should be able to find the invitation by going to Windows Update in the Control Panel (via System and Security).
If you are running Windows XP, Vista, or any other version of Windows then you will not get a free upgrade offer. However, you will be able to buy a copy for a maximum price of $119 (Windows 10 Home) or $199 (Windows 10 Pro).
It remains to be seen whether Microsoft will offer launch discounts to XP and Vista users. I wouldn’t bank on it. Such users have already ignored cheap upgrade deals for Windows 7 and 8, either of which would have got them Windows 10 free.
I believe microsoft did this as apple did as well. Previously the update from mountain lion to yosemite was free. I think microsoft got inspiration from Apple...
