How to join the Windows 10 Insider preview program
Becoming Windows 10 Insider used to be a major hassle, reserved only for Microsoft’s biggest fans and most dedicated developers. But with the official launch of Windows 10, getting into Microsoft’s preview program and sampling pre-release features is now a much simpler process.
If you’ve been curious about Windows 10 Insider builds, but are wondering where to start, look no further. Here’s what you need to know about the program, and how to join when ready.
What you need
To become a Windows 10 Insider, all you need is a Microsoft account and a PC running Windows 10. Of course, you can upgrade to Windows 10 for free provided you’re running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 on a PC that meets Microsoft’s system requirements, but reverting to these operating systems from the preview becomes a bigger ordeal. You’ll want to create recovery media (for Windows 7) or a USB recovery key (for Windows 8) before getting started.
