Just do a fresh installation of Windows 10 and the OS will automatically pick the product key since the license is tied to the motherboard. For example, if you have an activated Windows 10 Home PC then you can only transfer the license to another Windows 10 Home PC.Īlso, if you are swapping a new hard disk on an old laptop or PC then you don’t have to do anything.
However, if it shows OEM then sadly, you can’t transfer the license to another computer.Īpart from that, you must ensure the same edition of Windows 10 is installed on both the computers. If it shows retail then you are good to go. A dialog box will appear with the description of the product key. Press Windows and R keys at once and type “cmd”.
You can check the type of product key by following these steps. You can only transfer a Windows 10 license if you have a Retail key– either purchased from a store or online portal (a digital copy).
