Windows 10: Acquiring Windows 10 digital license

Hello, I recently purchased a laptop without an operating system, and I acquired Windows 10 Enterprise from an authorized seller. They installed Windows 10 Enterprise on my laptop, and I confirmed that it was activated and licensed at the time. However, I didn't create a Microsoft account during this process. When I received the notification to update to Windows 11 and completed the update, I was surprised to find that my Windows installation was no longer activated. To resolve this, I rolled back to Windows 10, where my activation status was restored. I then proceeded to create and sign in

Windows 10 Pro Digital License

I've upgraded my office PC recently to Windows 10 Pro acquiring a digital license when I activated it online using the Windows 7 Pro OEM product key that comes with the PC.

Its known that the free Windows 10 upgrade has long expired in 2016

So, Is this Windows 10 digital license acquired through this process using the OEM product key that comes with the PC valid ?

I've tested to upgrade another PC to Windows 10 Pro & similarly when I activated it online using the Windows 7 Pro OEM product key that comes with the PC, as expected it acquired the digital license successfully.

Can I come to a conclusion that the Windows 10 digital license acquired is valid & its free ?

Would appreciate some feedback so I could continue to upgrade for the rest of my office's PCs & laptops.

My main concern here is to not mess up the Windows 10 licensing issue for my company.

Thank you.

Thats how licensing works with Windows 10, the digital license is attached to your Microsoft Account and makes it easy to reactivate Windows 10 in the event you reinstall it.
