The first Windows 10 TODAY. 10 years of Windows 10

Windows 10 celebrated its tenth anniversary, marking a decade since its debut. In this video I walk through its evolution, starting with the upgrade journey from Windows 8.1 to the first public release, explaining the legal activation path via Microsoft, and analyzing which legacy software still functions on that original system. I then delve into why the end of support remains a distant concern, highlight five fascinating facts about Windows 10 over the past ten years, and assess its projected market share in 2025. Throughout, I showcase new features, real‑PC installation experiences, and my reflections on the platform’s longevity.
