Windows 10 - Trial Version?

[TechRookie16]

I have a mac but would like to test out Windows 10 and see if I want to purchase it. Is there a way to use a free trial for like 30 days before purchasing a key?

Thanks

Probably not.

Unless you had a older version of windows laying around.

I could be wrong.

Hmm, if you have access to win 7 or 8, then yeah, you can upgrade those into 10.
If you don't like it, just revert back.

Actually, I don't see why you can't just download Win10 and install it. Skip the part where it asks for the product key. Obviously, you won't be able to activate it until you give it a proper product key, but at least you could play around for a bit. Some of the OS will be disabled until you activate it, like being able to change the desktop wallpaper.

I was able to download the free 90 day enterprise trial, thank you so much. I have one my question and this involves a mac so it might not be the appropriate section but I downloaded the operating system to work on VirtualBox to test out. It downloaded and seems to work well but truthfully I didn't like the performance as a "virtual" OS and I felt like that wasn't fair to judge it on. I made it a fixed space on my hard drive because I suspected as much. Can I use bootcamp or Virtual Box to open up a dedicated Windows with my 50 GB I've partitioned?

Thank you once again for all the help. I couldn't find something really specific to this but I try not to ask questions on here unless I've searched first, though I don't doubt the information is SOMEWHERE out there! Thank you.

Glad to see you found the Enterprise eval.

Bootcamp is compatible with 10. It will probably give you the best performance.
