Windows 10: How to install genuine windows

I built my own pc, and my friend helped me move windows from my laptop over to my new pc. Most of the time it has the activate windows watermark, and it tells me to activate windows when I try to change settings. When I follow the instructions to activate it, it only shows an option to buy windows 10/11 pro. If I click on any other option it brings me to a page which is supposed to help, but I always end up back at the same page.I also want to upgrade to windows 11, but I don't know if I should activate windows 10 first and then upgrade, or if I should just go right to 11 if it's possible.

Windows 7 not genuine problem

It seems like that's an OEM windows copy, it will do that the every time you reinstall the OS. If you have the key, next time you see the "not genuine windows copy" click it and choose to activate by phone, everything else is pretty straight forward as it explains step-by-step. If it doesn't work, then its highly likely that you got a Pirate copy.

This. Windows media player 10 "update" also sneaks it in.
