Windows 10: Can I install and use OEM license for my personal use PC or Laptop as I am not a...

I bought Windows 10 pro OEM key from market at low price. I installed windows and activated the Windows with that key. Its running fine and working 100% with no issue. I just read today that OEM keys are only for computer manufacturer companies or system builders. I am not a manufacturer or system builder I just bought it and activated my windows with that key for my own laptop. So is it allowed to use OEM key for our own Laptop or PC. What are the License terms for OEM keys as I read on internet that its for system builders not for end user. I don't want to break any license terms.

- OEM versions do not offer any free Microsoft direct support from Microsoft support personnel

- OEM licenses are tied to the very first computer you install and activate it on

- OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard

- OEM versions cannot be used to directly upgrade from an older Windows operating system

Question On OEM Windows clean install......

"Flavors" of Windows licenses

Windows can be a little "odd" about license keys. There are at least 4 categories:

• Retail
• OEM
• Volume (electronic download)
• Corporate (no key needed)

For guaranteed success, the license key and media should be in the same category. If you have retail media, you may not be able to install it using an OEM or Volume license key, even though the key is valid for that version of Windows. *Wtf :wtf: Apparently, this is part of Microsoft's anti-piracy scheme (i.e., all customers are guilty until proven innocent).
