oh excuse me, yes. you must have purchased a license of windows in order to be eligible for the windows 10 free upgrade.

Actually you can apparently just skip putting in the license key, ignore the activation warnings, and it will just work as usual

So yeah its still free even if you don't have a Windows 7 license

Windows 10 is pretty good in spite of itself. Cortana and windows store apps are very bad but other than that it is just win 7 with some quality of life upgrades
