Title: Upgrade from window 8.1 to windows 10
Post by: whitjs on September 29, 2023, 12:35:59 PM

I was running windows 8.1 on my laptop (traveler) until there were no more upgrades.
I read today that it is possible to upgrade to windows 10.
Everywhere I look, it seems like I'm chasing my tail.
Does any know how to go about this?
Thanks

I just read an article on MSN that MS has closed the loophole that allows free updates. If I can find the article I will post it here.
