I seem to remember there being a free upgrade for the visually impaired. I'm a wanker and wear glasses, so I ticked the box and started downloading. Apparently others also used this as a loophole.
Must’ve been Win7. There were ways to upgrade certain 7 licenses to valid Win 8.x licenses (the infamous Windows 8.x with Media Center) that you could get if you had a viable Win7 license (anything except starter, basic and pro).
Win 10 and 11 were free “upgrades” if you had a 7+ key
