How to verify that my Windows 10 licence is associated with my Hotmail/Microsoft account

I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

From what I've read, I Windows 10 license is associated with my Windows (Hotmail) account. This means I can change some/most/all hardware and not lose the license.

I have read that if I don't have the Hotmail/Outlook account then it won't associate the license. This isn't a problem because I have a Hotmail account. When I log into Windows, I login using that account (and I assume the fact it syncs with One Drive is verification of this).

What I can't tell is how to verify that the license is associated correctly. What I'm concerned about is changing Hardware and it turns out I had not performed a vital procedure to make the association/registration.

How do I tell if my Windows / Hotmail account has an associated Windows 10 license?
