Windows 10: Windows license from Windows folder

I have an old desktop which I built myself with Windows 10 Pro which died recently. I don't plan to fix it anymore. The problem is that I haven't checked which license of Windows 10 it has Retail or OEM before it died.It has an SSD boot drive with other files on it. I just want to use this SSD on another laptop as another storage device. My question now is: Is there a way for me to check from the Windows folder the license version that I have? I'm asking because if it's retail, I will still be able to use it again on another computer if in case I want to build another one. Thanks in advan

:)

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

C windows installer folder - Delete?

He can do symbolic link redirection and move the files in it to a different location. *Wink
Better try it out in a virtual of first. Just a suggestion.

Like:
First move everything in c:\windows\installer to d:\installercache
Then delete c:\windows\installer folder
Then type this in command mode as admin
mklink /d c:\windows\installer d:\installercache

Removing those installer files is a bad idea. it might prevent you from updating or uninstalling apps.
