    " In anyy case, this violates the EULA." - what makes you think like that? There is no hardware tie anymore. Inside the EU, there never was.

    Do you mean there is no hardware tie in EULA?

    No hardware tie. You may transfer the license to different hardware, that is why MS has added this activation troubleshooter option. It is just for that: transfer to a partly different hardware. I am not saying that it will work with any completely new hardware, but the reasoning OEM=hardware tie is incorrect. In the EU, this practice was condemned illegal long ago.

    How about a different motherboard, which I mentioned in post #16?

    Look, this is a tutorial, not a discussion about legal aspects of certain license types Use Activation Troubleshooter in Windows 10 :)
    This discussion and all the info is on the net, tons of it. You may transfer a license anytime as long as you don't have it installed (and in use) on two devices at the same time.

    I cannot speak for all regions, I am not a lawyer. You may want to search the internet for info on that.

    'OEM Software may NOT be transferred to another machine' ── quoted from this document.

    I know that document. You will however find other info (also again by Microsoft themselves) and find that other regulations apply to different OS'.
    Please consult a lawyer that knows his stuff.

    I am afraid that consulting a lawyer costs much more than buying a new Windows license.

    Matthew, even if you asked Microsoft, you would get ten different answers if you asked ten different specialists. Licensing+MS=Horror. Ever since. I can only assure you, that in the EU, MS has lost in court and OEM licenses are not bound to hardware any more.

    Let's stop the discussion.
