Windows 10: Can I transfer my Windows 10 Education license to a new PC build?

Hi everyone,

I'm building a new computer for myself (switching from Ivy Bridge to Ryzen 5 3600) but I don't want to shell out on a new copy of Windows 10. Can I transfer my Windows 10 Education license to my new PC or is this particular version not eligible?

Thanks in advance

Transfer Window 10 education license to new laptop

Hi everyone, as mentioned in the title I wanted to transfer my window 10 education version license to a new laptop but my situation is a bit different from what i could found on the net.

In the beginning, my first laptop (A) comes with window 8 license by lenovo. After 1 or 2 year window 10 was released and i upgraded to window 10. But it was too slow for me so i upgrade my laptop A to SSD and install window 10. There wasn't any activation
process at all so i just keep on using it. Then there was a roadshow in my campus and i upgrade to window 10 education version.

But sometimes life isn't that beautiful, this laptop is unable to keep up with my needs. I decided to look for a new laptop (B).

In my country, laptop without pre loaded window is a lot cheaper.

Here is the question, am i still eligible to transfer my window 10 eduction license to laptop B?
Based on what i found on the microsoft community, my laptop A license is a OEM license which will not allows me to transfer. Later i was able to install window 10 on SSD is because of the digital entitlement on my motherboard. But now my license have
become window 10 education version which I could not find futher info on this. From what i heard from the roadshow, window 10 education can be transfer 1 time to a new pc/laptop but is not stated anywhere.

Thanks

Windows 10 Education is a volume license client; it is also full version. As long as you have the product key, you can remove it from the current computer, then install it on the new computer.

Windows 10 Education license transfer

I have a freedos laptop. I was bought Windows 8.1 Pro retail and upgrade to Windows 10 Pro for free. In this situation I can transfer my Windows 10 Pro license to another computer, right? But I recently upgrade from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Education.
My Windows 10 product key was supplied by school webstore (operated by Onthehub). So I have a question. Onthehub support team said I cannot transfer Windows 10 Education to another PC. But I heard Upgrade license's right is same that before upgrade OS's right.
Is it true? If it is right can I transfer Windows 10 Education to another computer? Because I have a Windows 10 that was upgraded from Windows 8.1 retail(FPP).
