Windows 10: Checking Windows license keys connected to my account

Is there any way of checking license keys connected to my Microsoft account that are not used on any device? Im haveing issues activateing Windows on another pc because every time i type in the key i get a popup saying that this key is used on another device. The pc im trying to set up is using a different Microsoft account so i want to check if I havent bound one of the keys to my account on accident.

Local vs Network user accounts

I just did a VM install, just to verify that I don't speak total crap.

Steps I took:

1. Installed Windows 10 Pro x64 Build 15063.0
2. Entered the License Key
3. Created a local account
4. Went to accounts and added my Microsoft account
5. Let Windows use this account for all apps
6. Checked status on Microsoft account web page.
7. Verified that the VM shows up there
8. deleted my VM locally
9. created a new VM installation without entering the License Key (on same VM but totally new Virtual disk)
10. re-did steps 3-7
11. verified that my VM is activated.

And indeed it is activated and I login to my VM using local account which is linked to my MS account.

Should I create a Video of this or do you trust my word on it? Or better yet test it yourself if you have a valid license key you can waste on a VM.
