Communicate this message to the masses was easily the most successful Microsoft MSFT -0.21% 's in the last year and the result has seen more than 110 million installations in just 11 weeks. Of course, the fine print tells a different story, but Microsoft has made a big change for the better.

Speaking to the official blog of Windows, vice president of Windows and devices Gabe Aul Group revealed a future accumulation of Windows 10 will allow users to register with their existing platform of Windows 7, Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 key:

"If you install this version of Windows 10 Insider Preview on a PC and is not automatically activated, you can enter the product key for Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 used to activate the earlier version of Windows on the same device activation Windows 10, go to Settings> Update and Security> Enable and select Change Product Key ", he said.

In addition, Paul said those who want to perform a clean installation of Windows 10 to boot from the media (for example, USB drives or optical disc) would be able to use these Windows 7 and Windows 8 buttons during installation.


In short: it's huge.

Why? Because Windows 10 can now act as the last 20 versions of Windows. Previously, those seeking new installation of Windows 10 could only get the free passage literally update Windows 7 or Windows 8 and Windows 10 (which recorded the hardware with Microsoft) and then reformat everything and perform a clean installation of Windows 10. Yes, it was a ridiculous one, which saw Microsoft forum flooded with abuse from angry users situation. Something that also alludes Aul at this time: "We have received many comments Insiders in what is easier to turn on Windows 10 on devices that use the offer of a free upgrade to Windows 7 through Windows Genuine product key existing Windows 8 or Windows 8.1."

But despite this very positive development, a number of pertinent questions remain:
 
• You want Windows 10 is activated by a valid Windows 7 or Windows 8 / 8.1key that has already been used on a different machine?
• Would the previous course of action that Windows 8.7 / 8.1 invalid on that machine?
• Can a Windows Key 8.7 / 8.1 being dismantled Windows 10 computers in the future to update a different PC - Windows keys as they worked before?
• do the changes have no effect on the period after July 29, 2016, when 10 will offer free update for Windows is expected to end?
• Needless to say, I came to Microsoft for the answers to these questions and will update when / if I get no response. The company has been notoriously secretive about the inner workings of Windows 10 up to this point, so I hope that will change to reflect the update more open policy.
• On the other looking at recent examples of Microsoft's behavior still leaves much to be desired
• Windows 10 Qualify units Hits Full Throttle
• Of course, I welcome a wider acceptance of the keys is, it is also a symptom of accelerated approach Microsoft to push so many people to Windows 10 as quickly as possible.
• In fact, in achieving this goal of Microsoft is, in my opinion, than the regular line. For example, last month admitted to downloading Windows 10 on all Windows 7 and Windows 8 computer even if the user has explicitly said that they did not want to update. Microsoft's answer to this:
• "For people who have chosen to receive automatic updates through Windows Update, upgradeable devices help you prepare for Windows 10 by downloading the files you will need if you decide to upgrade."
• Pull the other one!


On top of this last week reprinted Microsoft quietly patches for Windows 7 and Windows 8, the analysis of hardware are sent to determine the potential of a computer to upgrade to Windows 10.

It combines this with the re-release of a patch yet once you start pop-up ads on the desktop Windows 7 and Windows 8 computer urging users to upgrade to Windows 10. These tactics are still a step too far, but if Microsoft can keep the solution of the most satisfactory of Windows 10 then it can be win the trust of all in a more honorable.
