I have seen it advertised for $119.99. I believe this was on Amazon, but I
think that you can get it for this price else where as well.

Does anyone know how much win 10 costs if I want to get a copy to run in a
vm for example? I don’t have a windows machine that is able to run it at
the moment.

here's the article I copied and pasted it
Many of you have written concerned that you don’t have that little
upgrade icon for Windows 10 in the lower right corner of your Windows PC.

So what’s going on? There could be several possibilities, so let’s run
down the list.
It could be that your device doesn’t have the latest Windows updates. You
need to have updated to Windows 8.1 and have all current updates. Windows
7 must have Windows 7 Service Pack 1 installed as well as the latest
Microsoft updates.
For Windows 7 SP1:
KB3035583
KB2952664
For Windows 8.1 Update:
KB3035583
KB2976978
Try running both critical and optional updates and installing them. There’s
a good chance you’ll see the icon then.

You’ll only see an upgrade option for Windows 7 Home and Pro and Windows
8 Home and Pro versions. If you’re running an Enterprise edition, there
won’t be a free upgrade. Also, if you’re running Windows RT, there’s no
upgrade.
Is your device part of a school or business network that’s managed by
administrator? You’ll have to check with the IT administrator about
upgrades.
If Microsoft thinks your PC might not be able to run Windows 10, you won’t
see the get Windows 10 app before July 29. They’ll enable the app after
that date.
There’s also a possibility that you aren’t running a genuine version of
Windows. The upgrade will only apply to genuine Windows versions.

If none of the above apply to you, Microsoft does offer a fix, but it’s a
complicated one that I’m going to copy verbatim from their support site.
I do not suggest trying this unless you are very comfortable with
technology and doing something like editing your registry.
1.Open Notepad
2.Copy the following text and paste it into Notepad:
REG QUERY “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\UpgradeExperienceIndicators” /v UpgEx |
findstr UpgEx
if “%errorlevel%” == “0” GOTO RunGWX
reg add “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Appraiser” /v UtcOnetimeSend /t
REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
schtasks /run /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft
Compatibility Appraiser”
:CompatCheckRunning
schtasks /query /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft
Compatibility Appraiser”
schtasks /query /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft
Compatibility Appraiser” | findstr Ready
if NOT “%errorlevel%” == “0” ping localhost >nul &goto
:CompatCheckRunning
:RunGWX
schtasks /run /TN “\Microsoft\Windows\Setup\gwx\refreshgwxconfig”
1.Click File, and then Save As
2.In the File name box, change the file name to ReserveWin10.cmd
3.Then click the dropdown next to Save as type, and select All files
(*.*)
4.Select the folder you would like to save the file to. For this
example, let’s choose to save the file to the C:/Temp folder. Then click
Save.
5.Open an elevated command prompt. (From the Start screen or Start menu,
type Command Prompt in the search box, and then in the list of results,
right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as administrator.)
6.Finally, run the file from the location you saved to in Step 6. In
this example, you would type the following in the Command Prompt window
and hit Enter:C:/Temp/ReserveWin10.cmd
The Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser can take 10 – 30 minutes to run,
during which the script will continuously provide status reports that it
is running. Please be patient.
If the script is failing in an infinite loop, then you don’t have the
necessary prerequisite Windows Updates.
Hopefully one of these will work for you.
