Windows 10: figuring out if i have a Windows10 license key which i can transfer

As you can see here i tried the only way known to me, how to figure out whats my license key.
But in this case i don't get the key displayed after i display the path and i think i have the retail version of win10
which i upgraded to from win7 professional. I want to build myself a new PC and use this one with older hardware as my Linux PC but i dont know if i can transfer my Win10 license to my knew PC or do i have to by a new one? Looking forward to your answer!*Wink

License Transfer question


So I found this on the MS website.

Add Windows 8.1 Pro Pack or Windows 8.1 Media Center Pack to your edition of Windows 8.1

• Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.
  (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, and then click Search.)
  
• Enter add features in the search box, and then tap or click Settings.
  
• Tap or click Add features to Windows 8.1 and then do one of the following:
  
  • If you need to purchase a product key, tap or click I want to buy a product key online.
    Follow the steps to purchase and enter a product key.
    
  • If you already have a product key, tap or click I already have a product key.
• Enter your product key and click Next.
  
• Read the license terms, select the check box to accept the license terms, and then click Add features.
  
  
  Would this be the way to do it? And would it matter that this would be the US version and not UK?
  
  Thanks
  Conor
