Not sure what you are referring to but normally they offer free trial and installing them without valid license is illegal and it also harm your system and they won't function as expected.

Many online games and platforms (like Steam, Riot, and Activision) require a legitimate copy of Windows to function properly. An unlicensed version may cause compatibility issues, prevent updates, or even lead to account bans.

Non-activated Windows 10 provides limited customized configuration and features to users, but doesn’t influence game performance and hardware performance, just install your games such as csgo, valorant, COD, then enjoy them.
I ever played League of Legends and COD 6 on a non-activated Windows 10 machine.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2024-12-04T15:49:56.4033333+00:00 Running online games like CS:GO, Valorant, or COD on an unlicensed version of Windows 10 is not ideal. These games often require a legitimate Windows installation to work correctly. Using an unlicensed version could cause performance issues, prevent important updates, or even result in game account restrictions or bans.
