I have been reading some of this news articles comments various sites, some still don't believe it will be a legal licensed version if you upgrade from insider preview to windows 10 rtm. They are still thinking you have to a key or a previous version. At least we know better.

First,, don't trust another source than MS.. there are always MS haters that will stir things up.

Hopefully there's no strings attached. If not, then awesome move from MS! I tested 9841, fell off for awile because of a bug that nearly corrupted my external drive (made sure to report it first) then came back a few months ago :). You guys have been awesome btw. tenforums is a nice community. Hope MS actually pays attention to what's going on around here, as well as their own sources.

Surprised they're doing it like this. I was thinking MS would either say "lol format" or instead give a free upgrade to Final (home) for Insiders that have been registered for 3 months or more, and Pro for those over 6 months. And sent a pandabear to those that registered in October 2014 :)

Awesome they finally clarified this, was beginning to wonder if I needed to another 7 build or not.

Did you read what was posted in the first post?

So show me where I get it free and DON'T need a product key to activate the update. I seem to recall a thread a few weeks ago where Gabe said you'd need a valid key to activate.

I guess I need your decoder ring to figure it out.

That has changed, see the tweet in post #85

Real simple If you do a clean install of build 10130, sign up for a Microsoft Account . Once upgraded to the release. You will be able to activate without any previous license and it will be genuine. Then you can download the release iso for a later clean install that will be pre-activated.

Here is a secret decoder ring.
