Windows 10: window 10 License key

Hi, so I've just brought a new windows 10 License key form the MS store, it states the product key will be emailed to me, I can safely say this has not happened.I have looked at the help files and it says I should be able to find the key in order history, again nothing.I have also read that I will no longer need to use a key as its digitally linked to this PC, now unless the key is somehow linked to my user account that I am currently using how does it how I have a legitimate version of windows if I were to build a new PC or replace items that need upgrading and want a fresh copy of widows ins

:)

 

windows 10 key

Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

 

DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
I won't buy a key, stupid.

I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
is that causing the problem?

 

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.
