    Windows 8.1 and 10 not identifying license on my Laptop


    I have a laptop that came with Windows 8. Later Ubuntu was installed on it. Now I want to install Windows 10 on it. As I know, Windows 10 can be freely upgraded from Windows 8 or Windows 8.1. Now when I tried to clean and install Windows 10, it was saying "Activate Windows" or Windows is not activated. Then I cleaned and installed Windows 8.1, but still, it was not identifying Windows license from my machine. How can I solve this?

    :)

    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.
