Getting the final release on July 29th
Windows Insiders running the Windows 10 Insider Preview (Home and Pro editions) with their registered MSA connected to their PC will receive the final release build of Windows 10 starting on July 29th. This will come as just another flight. I’ve gotten a lot of questions from Windows Insiders about how this will work if they clean installed from ISO. As long as you are running an Insider Preview build and connected with the MSA you used to register, you will receive the Windows 10 final release build and remain activated. Once you have successfully installed this build and activated, you will also be able to clean install on that PC from final media if you want to start over fresh. If you are running the Enterprise edition of the Windows 10 Insider Preview, to upgrade to the final release of Windows 10 Enterprise you will need to download and activate it from Volume Licensing Service Center. As a reminder, the Enterprise edition of the Windows 10 Insider Preview is not eligible for the free upgrade offer and can be upgraded to the final release of Windows 10 through an active Software Assurance agreement. http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwin...review-builds/ |

Then there was the time actually required to get these disks to the distribution centres and the shops. This is why manufacturers often had to release patches to fix bugs almost on the day of release. They had to release the software to manufacturing several weeks early, but still carried on bug fixing. Now, they can carry on almost until the release time. They might have to upload it a day or two early to allow the content delivery networks used by the various app stores and Windows Update to catch up, but it's still a lot quicker that waiting for someone to run off 100,000 disks. Of course, they still need to give their OEMS (and other people) time to adequately test it. |
Re: [Update] Windows 10 Discussion
After the latest updated post from Gabriel Aul it has left me more confused.
It looks like you can continue as an insider after 29/7 and keep getting updated Win 10 builds, so this looks like a way for people without a legit key to keep using Win 10. My problem is i own a legit Win 8 key and from the post below it looks like i have to downgrade back to Win 8 to get the FREE Win 10 upgrade as staying as an insider i will lose that after 1 year, how does everyone else read it?

Re: [Update] Windows 10 Discussion
You only have to downgrade to your previous OS if you have XP or Vista. Win 7/8/8.1 will stay activated.
Well thats what I get from it. |

It is quite simple if you want to continue to test after RTM then you can freely with your clean install
If you no longer want to test you have to have a valid windows key for 7 or 8 I am simply going to continue as an Insider I doubt the rollouts will be that often and past RTM I will switch to slow ring . |
