For the general public, the free upgrade offer for Windows 10 ends on July 29. For certain users, though, a free upgrade to Windows 10 is still available. For customers who use assistive technologies, follow the link below to Microsoft website and simply click the “Upgrade Now” button, and it will begin downloading to your machine.
However Microsoft will continue improve the Windows 10 experience for people who use these technologies. Microsoft recommends that users check with their assistive technology provider(s) to learn more about their software compatibility with Windows 10.
One reason why the upgrade is still available to these users is due to the fact that Microsoft added a host of additional accessibility features with the update. In a Microsoft Developer blog post in early July, the company detailed all of the individual changes.
The screen reader feature, Narrator, got new languages, faster text to speech, new modes for punctuation, and many other updates. Microsoft Edge, Mail, Cortana, and Groove also got accessibility updates, and new developer tools add accessibility for developers working on a Windows machine.
Microsoft isn’t the only company adding new accessibility features to its products. Apple and Google has done that respectively. Currently, more than 350 million devices are running Windows 10.
