  1. Activation without losing games.


    So I have bought cold war and pubg on my pc but windows was not activated and my cold war will not open. Idk if not having windows activated is what's stopping cold war from opening, but I just wanted to know if it's possible to buy a key for windows and activate it without losing my games.

    :)
