  2. my old computer crashed and will not start up, how do i deactivate my windows activations key to transfer to new computer??

    I’m not sure if you are understanding?

    I have the activation key that was given me when I purchased the windows 10 edition. I put it on an older computer. That computer will no longer boot, hence me not being able to deactivate windows on the broken computer. If I cannot deactivate windows on the old, broken computer, I cannot activate it in my current computer.

    How do I deactivate windows on a computer that no longer will boot up?

  3. Deactivating Product Key on Old Computer to use on New

    I recently inquired a new computer that is extremely faster than my old one. (i am using Parallels on Mac's)

    I supposedly deactivated the product key on my old computer, (it said that it successfully deactivated). On the new computer, when I enter the product key it says it has already been used on a different computer.

    Forgot to deactivate old computer's product key before transferring the product key to another computer

    Actually I changed my laptop and forgot to deactivate old computer's product key before transferring the product key to my new computer.

    However, immediate after installing on new device I deactivated it from the old device. at the moment no product ID is activated on my old laptop.

    is there any problem now? what will happen? I am so concern

    my old key can no longer be turned on: I build a new PC and I want to use my old key on it since it is not working anymore. I install the correct edition of Windows which is home. I got the old one from upgrading from Windows 7 to 10 before. How can I do that?...
