  1. Hello, is it legal to sell a computer with Windows 10 not activated?


    Hello, I was looking to get into selling gaming PC’s on eBay and after doing research into how the PC’s are so cheap I found that they either did not include an activated copy of windows or used an OEM key from a redistributor for around $15. Included is a reference image for both of these as examples. I would like to know the legality of both these options and the consequences if they are used for the user, if any at all. I pride myself on providing high quality products and thus am looking for the best and safest route to take for my business and my customers. Thanks!

    What should I do to sell Windows 10 BOX legally?

    Hello,

    I would like to sell my Windows 10 BOX in pendrive. As far as I know the BOX versions of Windows can be sold legally when they are not installed in any computer. What should I do to be able to sell it legally? Of course, I know I need to uninstall it from
    my PC, but is it enough? Should I just format system partition and my copy of Windows 10 BOX can be sold or should I do something more?

    Thank you in advance.

    Best regards

  3. Is this legal? Windows 10 activation

    Hello,

    I've been looking for a straight answer on this: Can I use my Windows 7 key to legally activate Windows 10?

    This method still works for me - but is it actually legal?

    Is it legal to sell PCs with inactive Windows 10 version ?

    Hi

    I have an electronics shop. I format used PCs and resell them. I use Windows 10 copy downloaded from Microsoft official website. In the installation process I choose "I don't have product keys" hence a watermark appears (it's the costumer duty to buy activation
    key if he wishes). Is it legal to sell these PCs with such Windows version ?
