    Was building a new PC so I needed a new license. I went with Intel to start, but two weeks later I swapped to AMD and now my Windows 11 license that I used on my Intel build that I purchased 2 weeks ago from MS directly is nowhere to be seen and I can't use it on my AMD computer. I need a valid key or I'll cancel my order.

    Closing MS account that I used for Win licensing - question about new

    The Windows Settings Email and Accounts doesn't simply allow you to replace the account you are using for a digital license, which I need to do. Issue here is that my Win 10 digital licenses on all my PCs are tied to an outlook.com email account that I haven't used since 2018. I just closed that account, but MS gives you a 60 day grace period so you can re-open the account, before it totally wipes the account. So for my Win 10 digital is it safe to simply let the clock run on this outlook.com account and then "re-register" the digital license with my remaining live.com account. Or should I go through all the steps necessary to remove this outlook.com account now? From a web search, it's a whole bunch of steps.

    How to change license

    I just upgraded Windows 11 on my home computer. I previously had an education license licensed to my personal email address. When it loaded, it asked me for my info and it would not take my personal email, it had to have the school email to login. I did so, but it licensed me with the school's enterprise license which I do not want to use. I contacted support and purchased a Win 11 Pro license and used the "Change Product Key" option and it said successful, but it still is showing the enterprise license and my school email. I asked the representative I was chatting with about how to fix it and they sent me a support link to use, but when I click it, I get "this is a school account, contact your administrator" so I have no way to contact MS support. How do I get it to change to the Pro License and my MS account email?
