Microsoft allows legally downloading an ISO file and installing Windows 10 without a license. You get a minor watermark about it not being licensed, among some other restrictions, however, you get the OS running without paying a dime.
Has Microsoft got soft on piracy? Is Microsoft using other means (like better contracts with manufacturers for OEM licenses) to get people to chip in for their OS? Are they concentrating more on companies, and leaving individual users alone? May it be that they do not fear other OSs anymore (sorry Linux evangelists)? -- Doroletho ( talk) 01:03, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
