Actually these days, windows is free because what Microsoft wants is your user data. And unless you stop that from being sent to Microsoft, you are generating profit for them every time you use your computer.

If windows is free why are they still selling windows licenses. you might a free upgrade between 10/11. But windows is not free.

What they mean is that it’s like WinRAR, you can use it without a license forever, but you’ll have features locked and get constantly nagged to purchase license.
