Windows 10 and Windows 11 also share the same activation process, meaning you can always buy a Windows 11 product key and downgrade to Windows 10, which will be activated automatically using a digital copy linked to Microsoft.
This change doesn't mean Windows 10 is going away, as Microsoft has committed to supporting the operating system until October 14th, 2025.įurthermore, it's still possible to purchase Windows 10 licenses from third-party retailers, such as Amazon and Newegg, and hardware manufacturers still offer Windows 10 computers.įor users running older unsupported Windows versions (stop doing that!), such as Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1, you can still upgrade to a digital license of Windows 10 for free, and if you have supported hardware, upgrade to Windows 11 if you wish. This effectively makes it impossible to purchase Windows 10 licenses directly from Microsoft. However, it appears Microsoft pulled the switch a day early, as going to both the Windows 10 Home and Windows 10 Pro product pages now redirects users to the Windows 11 product page.
