I keep hearing conflicting things on this. It's been all over the 'net that the Anniversary Update removed this (see, e.g. here), but I do then see some users saying it's still possible.

I'm hoping to get a new gaming PC in April, and I'm super on the fence about whether I want to buy Windows 10 at all. My current desktop is still running 7, but given MS's refusal to support modern hardware with anything pre-10, I'm kind of stuck.
