    If I purchase a windows 10 license does it have unlimited activations?


    I primarily run linux but from time to time I need access to windows. It would be installed in random weird places sporadically and will never have a permanent home so activation limits aren't particularly useful to me. Sometimes I'll be running it in a vm on my nas, sometimes in a vm on my desktop, sometimes on a spare nuc that I have, and it will frequently be blown away as soon as it's served it's purpose. If I purchase windows 10 can I just throw it on whatever I want whenever I want without any issues?

    I purchased windows xp like 10+ years ago and very quickly ran into the activation limit which rendered the purchase entirely useless to me very quickly and I would prefer to avoid having that experience again.

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
    I won't buy a key, stupid.

    I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

    When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
    is that causing the problem?

    If you upgraded to Windows 10 for free and ended up in a non-activated state, try following these steps:

    • Go to Start

      , then select Settings > Update & security > Activation.
    • Select Go to Store, and check to see if a valid license is available for your device. If a license isn't available, you'll need to buy Windows from the Store.

      Note
      • This only applies if you haven't made changes to the hardware for your device.

    or you could hack it with a crack but please note this is always risky and you don't know what's in the hack
