Posted October 5, 2019 you can try manually forcing the upgrade this was updated a month ago saying the method described still works https://www.howtogeek.com/266072/you-can-still-get-windows-10-for-free-with-a-windows-7-8-or-8.1-key/ I will be testing this myself on my sisters old laptop so that I can swap it to an SSD.
