Download 90-Day Trial Version of Windows 8 RTM Absolutely Free


Recommended Posts

No product key is required to install this Windows 8 RTM edition but you'll need to activate it within 10 days after installing it in your system. If you fail to activate Windows within 10-day grace period, or if your evaluation period expires, the desktop background will turn black, you will see a persistent desktop notification indicating that the system is not genuine, and the PC will shut down every hour losing unsaved work.

You can download your free copy using following links:

Login with your hotmail or outlook email and download a free copy of windows 8 RTM

In short: Use it, just not as primary OS unless you're prepared to format in 3 months time. Personally i'd just wait until general release, should be more driver and software compatibility updates to make the transition smoother.

It is some surprise that a "Trial" is Free? If you were paying for it, it wouldn't be a trial...

Not always. Some apps offer "cheap" trials before purchasing the full version (often with the trial price knocked off). Also GT: Prologue ;)

It looks like this is the Enterprise version, has Windows 8 Pro been released as an Eval edition?

No. There's only an evaluation version of Enterprise.

    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D

    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
