    Transfer of a retailed Windows 10 to a new PC


    Hello, I need to transfer my Windows 10 License to a new laptop I bought. The previous one was only used for 3 months since October and is not able to be repaired it's currently at the official repair store and they are asking to pay almost as for a new laptop.... So now I had to buy a new laptop - please help me, how can I activate my license, since the old laptop can't be "revived" in order to unlicense it.. Thank you.

    :)

    transfer windows 10 to new pc?

    It depends on how Windows 10 was originally configured on your computer.

    If its a full retail store bought license online or offline, it is transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its the free upgrade from a retail store bought Windows 7 or Windows 8 license, it is transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its the free upgrade from a OEM preinstalled Windows 7 or Windows 8 license, it is NOT transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its a retail license, learn how to reactivate:
