Windows 10: MS AZURE OS License for Students

Hey there!


So I connected with MS Azure via my University account and got access to different Windows OS Versions and even enabled 100$ to use over a certain period for software. I just bought a new laptop without OS that I primarily use for Uni and like to install Windows on it via USB stick.


My question is: When I graduate next spring, my Uni account will probably be deactivated so is probably my connection to Azure Education. Will the Windows 10 license I downloaded iso file and installed on the laptop expire? Or is it a permanent license? Because I obviously like to use the laptop after my graduation, although it was primarily bought for educational purposes.

And is "Windows 10 consumer editions, version 2004 - DVD" the correct version to boot and update to the latest Windows 10?


Neither University IT nor Azure Support could help me with this. I´d appreciate any answer.


Cheers, Seb

Ms Azure costs / licensing and VM's

Hi there
has anybody got an idea on roughly what the monthly cost of the Azure Cloud service is for say a home user or a small (individual sole trader) type of business.

Basically to run 2 VM's with a small amount of e-commerce.

Looking at Ms's licensing- you'd need a Ph.D in Mathematics to even begin to understand what the costs are.

Cheers
jimbo

Cannot activate Windows 10 Enterprise subscription license for Azure AD Joined device

Here is the current situation:

• I have a Windows 10 Enterprise device that I cannot activate:

  • Error message: We can't activate Windows on this device as we can't connect to your organization's activation server. Make sure you're connected to your organization's network and try again. If you continue having problems
    with activation, contact your organization's support person. Error code 0x8007007B (DNS name does not exist).
• My device is indeed Azure AD Joined, and is not Domain Joined:

  • Comment: because I’m not domain-joined any more, this computer should not try to “connect to my organization’s activation server” any more, and should just reach out to the cloud for activation through Azure AD – right?
• I do have my company's Azure AD account registered with this device:

• My device is in version 1903:

• My device does show up as being registered under my Azure AD account:

• And lastly, my Azure AD account does have a Windows 10 Enterprise E5 license assigned to it:

• Even after removing the original product key from the registry, my detailed license information says “VOLUME_KMSCLIENT channel” under “Description”:

  • Comment: As per
    this, the "Description" field should contain something like "RETAIL channel Partial Product Key " when using the Windows 10 E3 or E5 license.
