Windows 10: Yet another license transfer question

I am looking to build a new PC to Windows 11 standard, using one of my existing windows 10 Pro licenses. There are, of course, a billion posts about this, precisely because there appears to be a lack of clarity, confusion, and contradiction the more one reads. To ease my headaches, I would appreciate an answer to a couple of what I think are simple questions. 1. On my Microsoft Account Devices page, I see 4 PCs each "activated with a digital license connected to me Microsoft Account" and each having Windows 10 Pro installed I can confirm that these are full retail versions in each case.

License Transfer question


So I found this on the MS website.

Add Windows 8.1 Pro Pack or Windows 8.1 Media Center Pack to your edition of Windows 8.1

• Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.
  (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, and then click Search.)
  
• Enter add features in the search box, and then tap or click Settings.
  
• Tap or click Add features to Windows 8.1 and then do one of the following:
  
  • If you need to purchase a product key, tap or click I want to buy a product key online.
    Follow the steps to purchase and enter a product key.
    
  • If you already have a product key, tap or click I already have a product key.
• Enter your product key and click Next.
  
• Read the license terms, select the check box to accept the license terms, and then click Add features.
  
  
  Would this be the way to do it? And would it matter that this would be the US version and not UK?
  
  Thanks

Transferable license

I transferred a digital license from my old computer to the new one. Then I removed my old PC from the list of devices in the Microsoft account. My question: will the license be removed from the Microsoft account when I remove the old PC that had this
license before?
