Windows 10 techically is free? As far as I know, they do no longer enforce activation.. However, in case you do not activate, you will not be granted access to personalization settings. The other functions of Windows 10 should be fully functional without any form of activation.

well it is true . windows start really enforcing activation since windows xp and the enforcement is much worse than windows 10 enforcement

in windows xp when you not activate your windows . you cannot log on to your desktop and you are required to register the windows xp

in windows vista before SP1 you can only use it to run internet explorer and your session is logged off every 1 hour but luckly they removed it in SP1

in windows 7 you get the black background with not genuine watermark and also nag screen ehm... Winrar

and in windows 8 and 8.1 you cannot do any personalization and very annoying blue nag screen that fill up the whole screen

and in windows 10 they just disable personalization and add a watermark . but the drawback is that most people have almost no reason to puchase windows 10 because of that .
