    Retail Licence and OEM Licencse two computers - same microsoft account


    HI All,


    i already have a laptop with a retail windows 10 pro license linked to my microsoft account.

    i bought another laptop which has an OEM licencse windows 10 pro.


    can i link my same microsoft account in the OEM laptop too? would it transfer my retail license to the OEM laptop? i would like to keep both the retail license on my previous laptop and continue with OEM license on the new one but link them to the same microsoft account.


    is it possible?

    :)

    What is OEM and what does it mean for me ?

    OEM = sticker licence for the computer and no help from Microsoft.
    Retail = licence on a separate piece of paper and support from Microsoft.

    oem to retail

    Hi FrankUnger1

    Where did you purchase that OEM copy of WIndows 10, you will have to check with the seller to see if they can provide you with a deal on purchasing a Retail Licence.

    Microsoft do not provide a way of going from OEM to Retail as they do not sell OEM licences to the general public . ..
