The free upgrade to Win10 offer has expired! None of the systems I've put

Note that Windows Update has been disabled so only apps with their own
built-in update scheme update as configured, or manually on demand.
A Win7 machine would not "auto-upgrade" to Windows 10 today.
But if you download a Win10 DVD and install it manually
while Windows 7 is running, you just might (still) get
free Windows 10. It didn't actually stop working a year
or so ago, and installing Win10 over Win7 has worked
since then.
But the more aggressive "auto-upgrade" behavior has stopped.

Thanks, that's good to know!
