Windows 10: Win 10 Deadline question

I upgraded from win7 to 10 then after a while I re-formatted & went back to Win 7 (clean install) and will be going back to 10. Can I wait to go back for free after 7/31 since I already installed it once & nothing has changed on my PC or do I have to get in before the deadline?

:)

 

Urgent: windows 10 install

Thanks for the reply!

But the posts above talk about the process and upgrading after the deadline if one has already done it once before. But I will be upgrading for the first time.

As the deadline for the free upgrade was 29 July.

However I couldn't complete it in time and my question was, if you could please let me complete the upgrade and then activate it for free now?

I have already downloaded the win 10 setup files.

 

I have free version win10 but if I have a major computer problem after the free deadline and need to reinstall win 10 again can I still get a free version.

I have free version win10 but if I have a major computer problem after the free deadline and need to reinstall win 10 again can I still get a free version. Or can I make a free version to DVDs in case I need it after the deadline.

 

If you activated Win 10 on the PC, Microsoft's activation servers are supposed to retain a "digital entitlement" indefinitely that would allow you to activate 10 on the same hardware. (For practical purposes, hardware = motherboard.)

You don't need to do anything to install and activate 10 again after 7/29.

 

So MS wont object if I install Win 10 from my ISO disc I made from their site after 7/29 or even upgrade my current Win 7 to Win 10. That is actually what I did originally, upgraded from 7 to 10 and used it about 2 months B/4 I got upset with the missing parts I had with 7 & went back to Win 7.
