The one-year anniversary of Windows 10 is fast approaching, and Microsoft has justannounced a new setof Windows 10 news.

Firstly, and most importantly, Microsoft has set a reminder to the world that the free upgrade offer to Windows 10 will expire soon on July 29. The company, however, still wants to make sure that no one will miss out on Windows 10, and is announcing that after July 29 you will still be able to get Windows 10 on a new device, or purchase a full version of Windows 10 Home for $119.

The Redmond giant also announced that Windows 10 has become one of the largest online services in less than a year, running on over 300 million active devices around the world. In addition, Microsoft has noted some other Windows 10 statistics which show off the company’s “more personal computing” vision.

With more and more homes, businesses, and companies adopting Microsoft’s newest operating system, these statistics no doubt shines a very bright light onto Windows 10.

So, all this in mind, if you have not already updated your system to Windows 10, now is the right time to update to avoid paying the $119 after July 29th!

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
