    Will I lose my product key if I wipe my hard drives?


    I am currently download Windows 10 media from the media creator onto my USB and I am planning to do a clean reinstall of Windows 10. And I'm very sure once you boot into the Windows 10 Installer you get the option to format your hard drives. So, my question is: Will I lose my Windows 10 product key IF I wipe my hard drives clean? The product key is digital.

    :)
