Windows is the name of a family of software distributions for PCs, smart phones, servers and embedded systems, developed and sold by Microsoft and available for multiple architectures.
Windows offers gift cards where you can enjoy apps, devices, games, software, movies and much more from the Microsoft Store online, in Windows. Here’s how to get those cards, their use and price, and what we have to say.
Tricks to get Free Windows
As of today, the most updated version of Windows is Windows 10. That’s why we’re going to explain below how you can get this software for free and legally:
- Use codes from older versions: If you have a code for Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 the solution is at hand: use the code of those operating systems in the installation and you will get Windows 10 for free.
- Do not activate Windows: It is possible to use Windows 10 Home or Pro without activating for years and never lose control of your computer.
- Use student discounts: If you are a high school student or higher, and you belong to an institution that is within the program, you can activate Windows 10 Education for free.
- Paying very little for the code: It’s not totally free, but it’s something. Sites like Licencias Para Software or Licencias PC CL in Chile distribute digital licenses of several versions of Windows, and a Windows 10 Pro license can cost up to 80% less.
