Win10 upgrade policy changes WinXP/Vista upgrade must pay full price

There have been indications that Windows XP can be upgraded directly to Windows 10 with a separate ISO image in the future, but Gabriel Aul, the Windows Insider preview project leader, has clearly stated No such possibility. According to him, Windows 7/8.1 can only go up to Windows 10, Windows XP/Vista is absolutely impossible, and must be completely installed, which means that user programs and data will be cleared.

Of course, considering that the system structure of Windows XP is almost completely different from the subsequent system, and software compatibility is also a big problem, a new installation is actually necessary, backup personal data, reinstall the software. Just fine.

Another source close to Windows development said that Microsoft plans not only to make Windows 7/8.1 users upgrade Windows 10 faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost.

For example, Windows 8.1 users will be completely free to upgrade, and Windows 7 users will only need a small amount of money.

Windows XP/Vista has to pay the full price.

Of course, this will definitely attract a lot of Windows 7/8.1 users to update quickly, but in fact, Microsoft should also give Windows XP users some small discounts, so that you can kill this "old things" more quickly. ;
