Windows 10 still free?Īt the moment, it appears that you may be able to upgrade to Windows 10 without paying. Windows 10 should improve the performance of almost any laptop that can run it, but your Vista laptop will still be old and probably slow. If the total cost of hardware and software is, say, £150-£200, it would probably be better to buy a new PC. If it has a reasonably fast processor and you can upgrade to 4GB, then it might be worth upgrading but only if you can find a cheap upgrade to Windows 7 with a valid key for not much money. If your machine has a slow processor and 2GB or less memory, then it’s probably not worth upgrading. It really depends on your specific hardware. Even if your PC is nominally compatible with Windows 10, the upgrade may still fail due to a lack of software drivers. You can test your Vista PC with the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, but you have to upgrade before you can test Windows 10 compatibility. Worse, you don’t know if the second upgrade will work. Vista users may now have to pay for two operating system upgrades: one to Windows 7 and one to Windows 10. The problem is that Microsoft’s offer of a free upgrade to Windows 10 expired after one year, on 29 July.
