Windows 10: Solving Activation Issues - from old computer to new computer

Purchased a custom build. Purchased a new Microsoft license for the Windows that installed when I restored my image of the old computer on to the new one via Macrium Reflect.

Three days in, the new computer was found to be damaged in transit, and sent it back. The builder will replace it. Made an image on Macrium Reflect of the new machine.

Hooked up the old computer, which still had an activated Win10 on it.

When I get the replacement, and restore the image I took, it will have the license for the damaged one. How do I get MS to transfer it to the replacement?

Thank you.
