Major Windows 10 Flaw

I was on another forum which had this image:




long story short and the hidden clause of the free windows 10 upgrade, should you change your PC in any way you will have to rebuy W10 at full price.

Shit storm ahead MS.

Sounds like an awful idea, I've never added or changed components in my PC but I know it's common so it's a crazy move from them.

How else are they suppose to profit from a free upgrade?

I bet, people who upgraded to Windows 10 for free will just downgrade back to Windows 8.1, or 7 from their old license key of 8.1, and 7 to use an older version of Windows without the need to pay to use 10 because they changed/upgraded their PC.

I highly doubt the downgrade will run well.

I agree, it probably won't go well, but you have 30 days to downgrade back to Windows 7 or 8.1 if you don't like Windows 10. If you made a hard drive image/clone with Clonezilla, Norton Ghost, Paragon, etc, you can just restore Windows 7-8.1 operating system with your image files.

What the hell? You have to reinstall your operating system every time you add a stick of RAM? That's madness. Is this written in their TOS?

got to be written somewhere, in very fine tiny tiny tiny ink.
