Microsoft officially called time located on the free Windows 10 upgrade offer in 2016, but allowed anyone using assistive technologies to go on to upgrade on the new OS without a penny.

This offer done anything about an honor system -- you weren't had to have to provide any proof basically used assistive technologies in order to make use of the deal -- allowing want you to continue to upgrade to Windows 10 cost free. Microsoft finally closed this loophole on December 31, 2017, except (whisper it) times, and the deal, are still available.

As noted, and tested by Ghacks, you can still upgrade your Windows 7 or 8.1 device using the assistive technologies page for free.

Just click the Upgrade Now button from the statement: 'Yes, Benefit from assistive technologies for ready in my upgrade to Windows 10.'

Doing so will download the Windows 10 Upgrade oral appliance you can run this and refer to the manual to upgrade your device for your latest version of Windows.

Whether Microsoft simply hasn't got around to ending the offer yet, or -- despite what it's said -- titans keep the offer running for long periods longer, isn't clear. Having said that if you do need to upgrade to Windows 10 free-of-charge using this method, you then definately still can. For the moment at least.
