Is it okay to buy a cheap Windows 10
As Microsoft (MS) ended technical support for Windows 7 on the 14th, interest in the new version of Windows 10 is growing.
However, there are many products currently sold in large internet shopping malls that are not in the regular distribution version, so consumer attention is required.
The sellers emphasized that there was no problem with the product by writing the phrase ‘100% genuine from Microsoft’. In fact, user reviews that purchased such products and succeeded in installation and activation are also noticeable. You can easily find this type of MS product seller not only in Thailand but also in overseas shopping malls such as eBay.
However, you can buy it at a cheap price, and then you can see the frustration. key windows 10, which is currently distributed for consumer use, is the FPP (Full Package Product) version. Put Windows 10 in a USB stick and sell it in the box packaging.
Most of the products that are sold for a cheap price on the Internet are a method of sending only a key that can be activated. This is presumed to sell product keys obtained through abnormal channels such as digital download versions (ESD, Electronic Software Distribution). With Windows 10 installed in this way, even if the product is successfully activated, it cannot be guaranteed to continue to be used because it is not an officially distributed product.
An official from MS in Thailand said, “It is not illegal to purchase a product, but if used after the purchase, it may be punished for the violation depending on the situation.”
Therefore, when buying Windows 10 on the Internet, if it is too cheap, it is safe to check if it is the FPP version.
