Upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10 for free

Windows 10 free upgrade offer is still valid

Microsoft’s free upgrade offer for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 users ended a few years ago, but you can still technically upgrade to Windows 10 free of charge.
While Microsoft has removed the special upgrade offer sites, but still now the company continues to activate Windows 10 licenses for people who upgrade from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1.

How to upgrade from Windows 7 or Windows 8,8.1 to Windows 10 for free?

To get Windows 10 for free, follow these steps:
Use a genuine copy of Windows 7 on your device or virtual machine.
Head to Windows 10 download page and click on ‘Download tool now’.
Open Media Creation Tool and select ‘Upgrade this PC now’. You’ll also need to click on the ‘Accept’ button to accept the terms and conditions.
Choose the upgrade option where you keep your files and information. If you do a fresh install via Media Creation Tool, you may not get Windows 10 for free.
After the installation completes, connect your device or virtual machine to the internet and open Windows Update > Activation.
Click on the ‘Activate’ button if required and your PC will be activated with a digital license after it establishes a secure connection to Microsoft servers.
If you’re unable to obtain the license, you can also enter your Windows 7 product key and manually activate the operating system.
The aforementioned steps will work only when you have a legit Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 installation.
When you download Windows 10 this way, your PC will receive a digital license valid for the life of your device.


PHPMailer Enable 2FA Send Mail with 2 Step Authentication

How to send mail using PHP mailer if two factor authentication?

2 Step Verification

Gmail 2 steps verification

To send emails using PHPMailer with 2-factor authentication (2FA), you'll need to generate an "App Password" or set up OAuth2. Instead of your regular password, use the App Password in PHPMailer's settings.

Steps to Create App Password

Enable 2FA: Make sure 2FA is enabled in your Google Account.

Create a custom app in your Gmail security settings.
Step 1 Click Google Apps icon (right side top near user logo)
Step 2 Click Account
Step 3 Click Security Menu from left side
Step 4 Type "App password" in the search field
Step 5 Click "App Password" Link
Step 6 Enter the App Name as PHPMailer and submit
Step 7 You will get App Password.(It will generate a token to use in the App )

This is what you'll use in PHPMailer.

Sample Code

$email = new PHPMailer(true);

$email->IsSMTP(); // Use SMTP
$email->Host= 'smtp.gmail.com'; // Sets SMTP server

$email->SMTPDebug = 0; // 2 to enable SMTP debug information
$email->Debugoutput = 'html';
$email->SMTPAuth = TRUE; // enable SMTP authentication
$email->SMTPSecure = "SSL"; //Secure conection
$email->Port = 587; // set the SMTP port
$email->SMTPOptions = array(
'ssl' => array(
'verify_peer' => false,
'verify_peer_name' => false,
'allow_self_signed' => true
)
);

$email->Username = 'your_email@gmail.com'; // Your Gmail address
$email->Password = 'your_app_password'; // The App Password
$email->setFrom('your_email@gmail.com', 'Your Name');
$email->addAddress('recipient@example.com', 'Recipient Name');
$email->Subject = '2FA Test Email';
$email->Body = 'This is 2 Step Verification Mail Sent by PHPMailer.';

if ($email->send()) {
echo 'Message sent!';
} else {
echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
}

Use the token as password in combination with your full Gmail account and two factor authentication will not be required.
