When Windows 10 was first debuted on July 29, 2015, Microsoft made it available as a free upgrade for Windows 7 or 8.1 users, and other compatible devices. But, since last summer, the tech giant pushed and prodded PC owners to upgrade their machines to its latest Windows version via upgrade prompts.

While the upgrade is currently free for most consumers with Windows PCs, it will cost $119 (approximately Rs 8,000), after July 29.
