        Unless you pirated W10 it was not free. The price of laptop and PC hardware with Windows per-installed is subsidized.

          I got my license for free from Microsoft, they literally gave them away when 10 was first launching, it was some kind of ambassador program ig but whatever it was it didnt require paying for anything.

          First time ive had a legitimate windows license since xp

          It was offered as a free upgrade for anyone with Wishes 7/8. And you could get free upgrades to those from earlier editions of Windows, too.

          Some people haven’t paid for Windows in 2 decades-ish with a legit retail purchase.
