Can i upgrade to 64 bit windows 10 install#
Indeed, even if you reserve Windows 10 now, you may not be invited to install it for days or weeks after the official launch on July 29. It doesn’t want to download the code to 400m (or whatever) PCs on the same day. The point of “reserving” the upgrade is to allow Microsoft to download Windows 10 – probably 4GB or more – to your PC in the background over a period of time. Yes, but it’s better to leave it until you’re sure you want it, as long as you do that before July 29 next year. Can I cancel and reapply?Ĭan I apply for a reservation and then cancel it? Then can I reapply for the reservation? dragothunder wolf To cancel your reservation, right-click on GWX, the white Windows icon on the Taskbar, select “Check your upgrade status” and then “Cancel reservation”. How do I cancel my acceptance to Windows 10 free? mattyphyllis Such users have already ignored cheap upgrade deals for Windows 7 and 8, either of which would have got them Windows 10 free. It remains to be seen whether Microsoft will offer launch discounts to XP and Vista users. However, you will be able to buy a copy for a maximum price of $119 (Windows 10 Home) or $199 (Windows 10 Pro). If you are running Windows XP, Vista, or any other version of Windows then you will not get a free upgrade offer. Alternatively, you should be able to find the invitation by going to Windows Update in the Control Panel (via System and Security). This puts a small white Windows logo – the GWX or Get Windows 10 app – in the system tray on the right hand side of the Taskbar. If not, run Windows Update to see if any updates are available for your PC. If you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8, you should already have had an invitation to “reserve” a copy of Windows 10. Can I get an invitation to upgrade to Windows 10, when it’s ready? Where is the link? Olga
