    Can i use windows 10 product key for windows 8.1?


    Hi, I'm using windows 11. my laptop came with windows 10. Since my laptop is having low specs i can't run both of these version of windows properly laptop lags a lot even for small tasks. Recently i happened to know that windows 8.1 might run on my device smoothly since the system requirements is fine for my laptop. I know about the end of support for windows 8.1 But my question is, will my windows 11 or windows 10 product key works in windows 8.1? Really helpful if someone answers..

    :)

    windows 10 key

    Now that I have finally upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 10 will my Windows 8 key work with a fresh install of Windows 10?

    I don't think that tool asks for a key if you are running the version of Windows you are trying to download the ISO for.

    windows 10 key

    Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?
