This is a developer build and not an officially supported Microsoft operating system, typically a windows 8 license key will allow an installation of this build. e.g. T3NJK-3P683-2T7BJ-2X27F-8B2KV
Developer builds were provided free by Microsoft, windows 8 – 11 were part of free upgrade paths. This page serves only as a centralized resource of applications Microsoft made freely available. No infringement is intended. Windows 9 was never released to shelves and as such is classed as abandon-ware completed as a fan project.
