Windows 10: Transfer digital license to a new laptop which already have an OEM license

Hello! I recently bought a new laptop for me, and it came with a Windows 11 Home Single Language OEM key already linked to it, as it should, but I have a desktop which I will not use anymore, and it has a Windows 10 Pro digital license on it. I want to transfer said digital license to my new laptop, but I'm confused as to what I should do in order to do that, since it doesn't open the Activation Troubleshooting screen as it already has a valid license. How should I proceed?Thanks in advance!

Transfer digital license from old PC to New one.

You would have to first ensure the Digital License is linked to your Microsoft Account. See instructions how to do that. You can then use the Troubleshooter on the new computer after installing Windows 10 to restore the license.

• Use a Digital
  License to Manage and Activate Windows 10 Anniversary Update

Please note, if your license was upgraded from a OEM preinstalled Windows 7 or Windows 7 license, it is not transferable.

Transfer digital license to new laptop

Hi,

I purchased a laptop with Windows 11 Home preinstalled. I have a digital license for Windows 10 pro on an old PC. I would like to transfer the Pro license to the new laptop - either Windows 10 pro or Windows 11 pro. How do I transfer the digital License?

Thank you!!

 

transfer digital license

a windows site suggests de-activating a device to transfer the -license' / key - to a new device. Is this true and possible in the case of --transfer digital license-- ???
