  1. Wanting to upgrade to Windows 10, What licensing is needed for a particular setup?


    Hi, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right section, and I'm not the greatest with networking and servers.


    I have a setup of about 10 computers and 1 server, passed down from someone else who set it up. This 1 server has an "image" of the setup I need on all the computers. I'm wanting to upgrade to Windows 10 on these computers and update the server but I am unsure what licensing I need.


    These computers are used by people to test their software skills and internal workings of operating systems and so sometimes they get broken. This is where I have to re-image them from BIOS, using the "Image" on the server. What I am asking is;


    Does the Windows Server 2019 license do this?

    and

    Do I need 10 separate Windows10 Licenses, Or can I use one License and then re-image to multiple computers?


    Any other suggestions would be very appreciated


    Thank you

    :)

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    Hello guys,

    I have 1 license of WIndows 8.1 FPP/retail license. I want to upgrade to WIndows 10, but I one thing is unclear to me.
    If I upgrade, will WIndows 10 license be retail or it will "turn" into some sort of OEM license?

    I ask this because I upgrade my PC, you know, more memory, replace HDD, and I intend to upgrade the MB and CPU to Kaby Lake platform sometime in the future, (and of course sell the replaced hardware)
    This thing is not clearly mentioned anywhere.

    Thank you.

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    The interesting question is that: the upgrade takes place before 29 of July. If I upgrade the PC (change the MB), and I transfer the Win 8.1 license to this new PC (cause 8.1 is retail FPP), will I be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free? Or a upgrade license must be bought?

    Windows 10 upgrade license

    I wager that this "deadline" will be extended as the goal is to get everyone on Win 10 whether they want it or not.
