    Question in the topic. So I bought this PC from a shop and said that it comes with windows 10. I went ahead and check out of curiosity whether my windows 10 is genuine or not. I found that it wasn't and was prepared to buy a genuine copy of windows 10. Just wondering if the code will work if the current windows 10 is activated from an activated software and none of my data will be gone.

    Tq.

    This kinda sucks. However, if one is upgrading from a retail W7/8, then it should activate on different hardware, with possible phone activation required if it's been over 120 days or whatever the timeout period is now since the last activation. Remember to erase the copy on the old hardware, of course.

    How long did you wait for activation?
    When I re-installed with a fresh install... it took a few hours to sync and activate.
    However, it did, finally, activate.

    umm ok.. I guess I don't understand. So, my key is blacklisted, so I can't activate. How do I have a legit copy of Windows 10 if my key is useless?
