    Purchase upgrade key for colleague in different country


    Hi,


    One our staff works in New Zealand and has purchased a laptop with Windows 10 Home. We want to upgrade the machine to Windows 10 Pro. Can I purchase a license key online from my office the UK and email it to my colleague in New Zealand? Are the keys region-specific? Is it possible to purchase a key for use on a different computer? How do I do this?


    Thanks,


    Pete

    :)

    Purchasing from an unlisted country

    How can we purchase games and apps if the country we are in is not included in the limited list of countries available when adding a credit card ?

    Windows 10 Prod key shows different

    I have installed windows 10 pro on newly installed pc, I purchased a key while back i used an app called prodkey to find what the prod key is so i could use the same key for new pc. however when i activate with key that i bought Prod key reports it as a different key all together *Confused I guess im little confused on this as well with how it handles License keys like it is activated but not - lot different than Win7. Does windows 10 actually require a key after a fresh install, the step where it asks to put in product key I skipped that step as i would do it later but when i go to System in control panel it says Windows is activated huh? so i selected change product key and put in the key i purchased not sure why the app prod key shows a totally different prod key from C:\windows.
