Windows 10 free upgrade from XP?

[Dylan1999]

So I heard a little while back that people using windows XP are to be getting a free upgrade to Windows 10 to get them up to date with technology. I was just wondering is this true, because I have an XP disc just sitting around and if I could put it to good use thatd be great. Any information would be appreciated!

It currently looks like it is only 7 and 8.1 that get the free upgrade.

Win XP is not going to be upgraded for free, and neither will Vista. Win 7 and Win 8 will get the free upgrade, which should be out in the Fall.

so just to make sure... if you have win 7/8.1 u can upgrade to win10?

Yes they will allow for the first year of release anyone with 7/8.1 to upgrade for free. It is an attempt to phase out 7.

Remember about upgrading Windows 7/8 to 10:

The upgrade is not eligible for Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 8/8.1 RT.
