    Upgrade Windows server 2016 OEM license to server 2019 Retail license


    If I have an Windows server 2016 OEM license embedded in BIOS,

    but want to upgrade to a Windows server 2019 license,

    can I buy a retail license for Windows server 2019 and activate that?
    Will there be any problems due to the OEM license embedded in BIOS?

    :)
