Microsoft Allows Windows 10 Upgrade For Pirated Versions by martfrank(m): 2:17pm On Mar 20, 2015
A few hours ago, Microsoft dropped a terrific news that Windows 10 free upgrade will also be available for Non-genuine users (pirated version) globally.

This means all users of pirated version of Windows 7 and Windows 8 will be allowed to upgrade to Windows 10 at no financial cost..The catch is that Windows 10 will be free for the 1st Year, after that users will have to pay to continue using it.

What is their motive for doing this? The answer is simple; In Asia and Africa, millions of users are using the pirated version of Windows. With this move, Terry Myerson
says Microsoft plans to ‘re-engage’ those users (non-genuine ones).

On Tuesday, Speaking at the Windows Hardware Engineering Community (WinHEC) summit in Shenzhen, China, Myerson announced that Windows 10 will be available in 190 countries and 111 languages this summer.
