Download and Install Windows 10 Right Now, Anywhere in the World

You can confirm the latest Windows 10 being downloaded in the Windows Update. You might have to check for updates or restart your PC (going by the comments in the original Reddit thread) but it worked for us without doing anything but typing the string in the Command Prompt. Let us know if this works for you; some users have managed to download and install Windows 10 using this process while others are reporting having trouble as they don't seem to be allowed to install the update after the download finishes.

Don't forget that this will only work if you have already reserved a copy of Windows 10. Once the download is complete, you'll be notified for installation. You can decide to schedule at some other time or install it right away. Considering the heavy load on Content Delivery Networks (CDNs), expect super slow speed of downloads and be patient as there's nothing wrong with your computer or anything else. Analysts had already reported that we should expect to see some performance issues with the internet as Microsoft reserves some 40 Tbps for rolling out its Windows 10 to consumers.

When you decide to install Windows 10 on your computer (regardless of receiving the notification from Microsoft or doing it manually through the aforementioned string), simply go to Windows Update and follow through the steps. It's nothing but clicking to agree with the legal stuff, clicking Next on the Your upgrade is ready to install popup and the next few screens afterwards. Once done, click on Start the upgrade now and let your computer take care of itself. This is a good time to get yourself some coffee as the installation process will take from 20 minutes to around an hour and a lot of battery. Patience is the key, my friends.

Important to check before you install Windows 10

• Don't forget to check the minimum System Requirements to make sure your computer can handle Windows 10.
• Backup is the key! Remember, you won't lose your programs or apps but it's always recommended to keep a backup when you are going with a system update.

We hope you have successfully managed to download Windows 10; installation is super easy.
