Software company Microsoft made headlines in the past weeks with a significant announcement. The news stated that the company would discontinue the free upgrade from Windows 7 and Windows 8 to Windows 11. Today, as a result of the recent reports, this upgrade has been completely terminated. Here are the details!
Transition to Windows 11 is officially closed!
While Microsoft continues to encourage users to migrate to Windows 11, they also provide support for older operating systems. However, following the news that emerged in recent weeks, it was stated that the use of Windows 7 and Windows 8 activation codes on Windows 11 would be prohibited.
Today, the use of Windows 7 and Windows 8 activation codes on Windows 11 has been definitively prohibited. This means that a free transition is no longer possible. However, you can still upgrade to Windows 11 using a Windows 1 activation code.
In recent weeks, there was an update for Windows 11 called “23H2.” This update also brings extensive transition key support to go through the setup again. This system allows for a passwordless login experience by using your face, fingerprint, or PIN to sign in to your accounts.
Furthermore, this update also includes built-in RAR/7-zip support features along with the AI-powered Windows assistant, Microsoft Copilot. The Ink Anywhere feature in the update allows you to write with a stylus pen in any text box anywhere in Windows 11.
