for Piracy Upgrade Windows 10 Before the official release of Windows 10, almost all media conveyed such a sentence: “Piracy users can still be pirated after upgrade and upgrade”, is this really true? Yesterday, the author I also upgraded multiple machines in my hands to Windows 10 in the first time, and used the official /360/Tencent three different ways. Perhaps you are worried about system activation after upgrading Window10, then I will tell you about the activation after upgrading Windows 10 with your own upgrade experience.

after I personally test and close colleagues, proved pirated Windows8.1 (KMS activation) through Microsoft official Upgrade Assistant can be activated perfectly after upgrading Windows10.
netizen said that his Windows8.1 (KMS activation) through official channels after Microsoft upgrades can be the perfect activation. As can be seen from the above figure, KMS activated Windows 8.1 is a VOL key after upgrading Windows 10.

360/Tencent Upgrade Assistant can pirate Windows Washing white?
Before Windows 10 was officially released, 360 and Tencent seem to have hinted that they can be upgraded to Windows 10 through their upgrade tools. What is the truth?

First, the author selected a Windows 8.1 (KMS activated) laptop, enter "ldmgr;vbs -dlv" through the command prompt; you can see that the machine's volume activation expires 180 Days, which belong to the normal KMS mode activation.

When I use 360 upgrade assistant to upgrade to Windows10, again When viewing the activation status of the machine, it is found that the product key channel of the machine is: Retail, and it is permanently activated, which means that pirated Windows 8.1 can be upgraded after upgrading Windows through 360 Upgrade Assistant.
Tencent upgrade assistant, permanent activation
the same, I also use the Upgrade Assistant to upgrade Tencent process, upgrade after upgrade Windows10 In this simplified, I use the other one Windows7 PC (Activate software activation). After upgrading to Windows 10, the author looks at the activation status under Windows 10, also shows permanent activation, and is a Retial key. At this point, you can initially judge that you can use the 360/Tencent Upgrade Assistant to upgrade Windows10.
Using 360/Tencent Upgrade Assistant After uninstalling pre-installed soft, it remains active?

After upgrading Windows 10 with 360 upgrade assistant, more 360 security guards, 360 speed browser two programs. Similarly, the Tencent Upgrade Assistant used by the author upgraded Windows10 and added two programs, Tencent Security Manager and Tencent Video. It can be seen that Microsoft has restricted the upgrade of third-party channels, and pre-installed two softwares.
After uninstalling the pre-installed software, the 360 assistant upgraded machine is still permanently activated.
The most concerned about everyone, uninstall the pre-installed these two softwares still remain active, I also personally verify. The author uninstalled the pre-installed software after upgrading Windows 10 through the 360/Tencent upgrade assistant. After uninstalling, it was restarted several times and connected to the Internet. The query still shows permanent activation.
PS: On July 30th, Tencent Upgrade Assistant and 360 Upgrade Assistant successively indicated that they have suspended the upgrade service of Windows10.
Summary:
By the current situation of the author's test, through the Microsoft official upgrade assistant, 360 upgrade assistant, Tencent upgrade assistant three tools to upgrade to Windows10, can achieve the effect of pirated Windows whitewashing, This is quite different from the statement that “Piracy users are still pirated after upgrading and upgrading” that was advertised before Windows 10 was released.
First of all, Microsoft did not make a clear statement about the pirated Windows upgrade to Windows10. After the official release of Windows10, it was found that it can be washed. This is something Microsoft must know, you only need to seize the opportunity to upgrade Windows10. So much. Since 360 and Tencent's upgrade assistants have suspended the upgrade of Windows 10 services, it is recommended that you choose Microsoft official assistant to upgrade Windows10.
At the same time, the author also thought that Microsoft expects Windows 10 to install 1 billion devices in 3 years, which also shows that Windows 10 is enough to be valued at Microsoft. Therefore, we can also reasonably guess that this is Microsoft's own sweetness, so that the popularity of Windows10 will increase rapidly, which is also a good means.
