Windows 10 release set for the summer

Microsoft’s upcoming Windows 10 OS is currently in the technical preview stage and for the people testing, it feels nearly finished. But for a lot of people, they can’t wait to get their hands on it and now we know when the public and final build will arrive.

At the Windows Hardware Engineering Community (WinHEC), Microsoft took the opportunity to announce that the final version for the public of Windows 10 will be released this summer.

Terry Myerson, who spoke at the event revealed the release date period for the new operating system and that interestingly, it would allow pirated copies of Windows to upgrade to a genuine version. Myerson spoke with Reuters in a telephone interview to break the news: “We are upgrading all qualified PCs, genuine and non-genuen, to Windows 10.”

“We continue to make great development progress and shared today that Windows 10 will be available this summer in 190 countries and 111 languages,” Myerson wrote in a blog post on the company’s website. “Windows has always been global with more than 1.5 billion users around the world and here in China hundreds of millions of PCs operate Windows today.”

Windows 10 will be avaiblw this summer for desktops, laptops, tablets, phones and Xbox One.
