Windows 10: Transferring windows 10 education to a new ssd

I received a free windows 10 education key from the college I go to for personal/school use. I used said key to activate a copy of windows 10 on my home computer, I recently bought a faster ssd and want to switch my OS to the new ssd. The issue is that I am unable to log in to the education edition with the account attached to the key. is there a way to either migrate the OS from my original drive or to log in to education edition with the email attached to this account.

Transfer Window 10 education license to new laptop

Hi everyone, as mentioned in the title I wanted to transfer my window 10 education version license to a new laptop but my situation is a bit different from what i could found on the net.

In the beginning, my first laptop (A) comes with window 8 license by lenovo. After 1 or 2 year window 10 was released and i upgraded to window 10. But it was too slow for me so i upgrade my laptop A to SSD and install window 10. There wasn't any activation
process at all so i just keep on using it. Then there was a roadshow in my campus and i upgrade to window 10 education version.

But sometimes life isn't that beautiful, this laptop is unable to keep up with my needs. I decided to look for a new laptop (B).

In my country, laptop without pre loaded window is a lot cheaper.

Here is the question, am i still eligible to transfer my window 10 eduction license to laptop B?
Based on what i found on the microsoft community, my laptop A license is a OEM license which will not allows me to transfer. Later i was able to install window 10 on SSD is because of the digital entitlement on my motherboard. But now my license have
become window 10 education version which I could not find futher info on this. From what i heard from the roadshow, window 10 education can be transfer 1 time to a new pc/laptop but is not stated anywhere.

Thanks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
