    Windows 10 digital key reuse


    I have purchased a digital key of windows 10 Home and used it on another device. Now I have a new PC and I cannot use my key even though I deactivated my old device with slmgr /upk. I get a 0xc004c008 error. I don't have my old device connected to a microsoft account. Is there a way of getting the key to work, or do I really have to buy another one?

    :)

  3. windows 7 key reuse

    Hey guys,

    I'm selling my 1 year old laptop (laptop 2 in sig), which came with Vista OEM.
    I installed windows 7 on it with a key from MSDN. My best friend(the buyer) will format the laptop before he gives it to his sister, so I wanted to know how I can reuse my key for a new pc in the future.

    I googled a little bit, but I couldn't find a clear answer. Will I have to call Microsoft or something?

    kind regards,

    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?
