  1. Digital License Hardware Transfer - Can't find Window's Account


    Hi All,So I just found out today that when I am doing a PC Hardware change, I do NOT need to purchase a new Digital Retail License, I can just transfer over my old Window 10 Upgraded from 8.1 Digital License. I do not intend on utilizing the old system so I am fine with this.However, my issue is, I can't seem to find the appropriate Window's account information to Login to my Old-PC Microsoft Account. Old-PC Built in 2015, Retail Product Key Purchase, Originally had Windows 8.1, upgraded to Windows 10 - Connect with Email 1Laptop Purchased in 2018, OEM Window OS - Connected w/ Email 2Ne

    Windows 10 Digital License Transfer

    So there is no deactivation for the digital license and no transfer to a new system without linking to a Microsoft account? I would like to deactivate on the older hardware prior to sale.

    It doesn't necessarily mean, you can easily transfer Windows 10 to another computer. Here is an explanation of how it works:
