It makes you wonder who the product is in this situation.

By any chance, have you ever used your Windows 7 product key to upgrade to Windows 10 during the first year launch of it, when it was for free? Once activated, the product key remains eligible for future Windows 10 versions past that free time period.

It's pretty much the circle of Battle Royale, that's slowing closing in on Windows 7 users. Looking forward to comments once they're forced to switch. My popcorn is ready!

That's what people said about Windows XP. Nowadays, people only have an XP setup for old games and archaic hardware/tools. Windows 7 will have the same fate. It won't be obsoleted as quickly as XP, but it also didn't have as many diehard fans.

Just don't choke on your popcorn when your Win10 suddenly decides to reboot for "urgent" update XD Win7 is superior OS in any way than Win10. I watch your ':(' from the higher ground. Your threatening and increased blood pressure is signs of your weakness and poor OS that you are behind. Admit HUGE victory of WIN7 and begone filthy Win10 user. Win7 > Win10 forever. No wonder you don't have likes, cause your Win10 holds your back! We Win7 users have many likes and we LOVE winning. Unlike you Filthy win10 users that everybody hate. Go feed M$ on M$ store. It wants your money NOW!

Someone is slighty triggered. No, not me. I'm using Windows 10 after all for 3 years without any major i

You're right. Windows 7 is the best OS after all, especially after 2020 when they continue to release security fixes.

A-ha! So you ARE going to use Windows 10 after all, while it's still in Early Access in 2025. Or you could install Linux, i heard 10 years ago it was gonna be a Windows killer.

I have to admit Windows 7 was so successful MICROSOFT gave out free upgrades for Windows10 and still they were struggling with users upgrading. That's bad lol. It's like a car company trying to give you a new car and people still decline.

Windows 10 LTSB (LTSC now) isn't too bad. Though Microsoft hates people using those (due to their lack of spyware) and makes it very hard to legitimately acquire them. Even their articles on LTSC basically beg you not to use it and to use SAC instead lol.

I will never use Windows 10. I refuse to allow Microsoft to take away my ability to have control over my own PC with 10. I ended up going from 7 to 8.1, and everything works 100 percent without issue with my R7 2700X. As an added bonus, gaming performance is faster, and so is NVME drive speed. Don't believe the lies about AM4 drivers not working on Windows 8.1 either. The drivers for Windows 7 work just fine on Windows 8.1, and all you have to do is install them through device manager. You can make Windows 8.1 look almost identical to 7 with just a few minutes of configuring.
ROFL ok dude. Have fun staying in the past. My ryzen rig runs flawless on Win 10, and my 960 evo does above advertised speeds from Samsung.

Lol @ Windows 10 Spyware. Maybe you should disconnect from internet if you're that worried. This is getting as old as the Noctua color discussions.
