Windows 10: How to I install Windows 11 on my rebuilt Windows 10 machine?

I had Micro Center install a new motherboard & processor in my Windows 10 desktop. It runs OK but wants me to "Activate" Windows. I contacted Microsoft Support but was not successful. I did learn that this is a licensing issue. I do have the Windows 10 product key, and learned somewhere that with that I should be able to download & install Windows 11 free. Can someone here provide step-by step instructions?

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
