  1. Activating Windows 11 on New PC With Windows 10 Digital Licence from Old PC


    My current PC has a Windows 10 Home Digital Licence linked to my microsoft account and am planning to unlink it from my current pc and transfer it to my new pc that I will be building soon. As such I was wondering if I were to install Windows 11 Home on my new pc instead of Windows 10 Home would I be able to activate it using my Windows 10 Home licence/product key linked to my account?

    :)

  3. Windows Digital licence transfer

    Hi,

    hoping someone can help me. I have significantly upgraded my PC (almost everything apart from BD and case!) and have had to re-install Windows. The digital licence I had associated with the original PC will not install on my new PC and tells me it is
    invalid. From memory the old licence was associated to an old Windows 8.1 licence I bought many years ago.

    Is there anyway to utilise the digital licence. The only licence on my account I can use is a licence associated to a laptop that I actively use. Although the old PC is listed as have a digital licence.

    Any thoughts or help much appreciated

    Thanks
