    digital license question


    Hello! I asked this question yesterday but now can't seem to reply in the same thread to ask for clarification. Sorry to clutter this forum.I purchased a 11 pro digital license through the Microsoft store to upgrade a work computer computer 1. However, I was foolish and bought it with my personal account account 1 rather than my work account account 2. I am worried that future users may be able to see my personal data, or if anything happened to my account in the future that it would negatively impact my company. Is there any way to make the following happen?sign account 1 out of compute

    :)

    Digital license

    Thats how licensing works with Windows 10, the digital license is attached to your Microsoft Account and makes it easy to reactivate Windows 10 in the event you reinstall it.

    Digital license bind question

    Because you refer to a digitally licensed laptop in your first sentence which apparently isn't involved in the swap between two other PC's discussed in the next sentence?

    I've amended my suggestions above.

    Feel free to ask back any questions and let us know how it goes.
