ONLY 3 DAYS TO GO | You have less than a week to upgrade to Windows 10 for free


MANILA, Philippines — Microsoft highlighted that more than half of qualified PCs in the Philippines are at risk of missing out on the free Windows 10 upgrade offer which will end July 29.

According to web traffic analysis tool StatCounter, 56.4 percent of PCs in the Philippines are still running on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, both of which are eligible for the free Windows 10 upgrade offer.

“Windows 10 is the fastest growing version of Windows in history, and more than 350 million active devices around the world today run on the most personal and productive version of Windows we’ve ever created,” said Karrie Ilagan, Country Manager for Microsoft Philippines. “We strongly encourage eligible PC users to take advantage of the free upgrade to enjoy great new features on Windows 10 that will truly enhance their personal computing experience.”

Since launch, Windows 10 has seen the highest customer satisfaction rate among customers as compared to previous versions of Windows. In addition, there has been incredible customer engagement with more than 135 billion hours of use on Windows 10 since launch. From students to mobile professionals, Windows 10 has created new computing experiences that are more engaging, more natural and more productive.

In addition, the upcoming Windows 10 Anniversary Update will roll out globally on August 2, bringing key breakthrough new features to all Windows 10 PCs, including more security features for the most secure Windows; increased power efficiency, extensions and accessibility with Microsoft Edge; a better gaming experience with Xbox Play Anywhere; and innovations for the modern classroom where education customers can enjoy a range of new features in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update.

Ilagan added, “With Windows 10, our vision was to provide the best and most secure operating system that gets even better over time. The Anniversary Update is just the first step in our commitment to consistently add new features and innovations that people love to Windows 10. Customers who take advantage of the free upgrade today can do so with the full confidence that they will continue to reap the benefits Windows 10 will offer down the road.”

Microsoft is encouraging all qualified PCs to upgrade to Windows 10 immediately, before the free upgrade offer ends on July 29, 2016. After July 29, users who missed the free upgrade offer will have to purchase a new Windows 10 product license to keep their devices up-to-speed with the Anniversary Update.
