    Move W10 to new build.


    I just completed my first pc build, thanks with the W10 transfer. I did Great! I want to build another for my wife. she has a laptop that originally was W8 which I free upgraded to 10. Can I install W10 on the new build and use her activation key to activate her Windows on it? the laptop will be cannibalized later. Or will I have to pay for another copy of 10?

    :)

    New W10 Builds

    A request on future W10 builds:

    1 -- Leave System Restore turned on if it was on originally

    2 -- Leave the defragmentation options alone. I set mine on daily and with each new W10 edition it sets them to weekly

    3 -- Leave the screen saver setting alone. I use a time setting scroll for screen saver and new editions change it to Windows 10 scroll

    4 -- Let the custom monitor color profile alone. Recent editions have corrected this I think. Sometimes the color profile is still there and loaded
