- NikkiA 7y agoYeah, but only for the hardware you have - the upgrade path seems to force you to a 10 OEM license, I went 7 pro (non-oem) to 10 pro, then changed motherboard, so had to buy a new copy of 10 pro oem, then that CPU stopped working and had to buy a new CPU & motherboard, and so finally I'm on running my own KMS server - fuck paying for windows a 3rd time.
- cookie_monsta 7y agoI've had a pretty good run of calling the MS support line and getting them to reactivate if Win10 deactivates due to a hardware change. Takes 5 minutes, maybe. Occasionally if you're on an upgraded-from-win7 or 8.1 OEM license the service agent will tell you that it can't be done for OEMs but hanging up, calling back and getting a less fastidious agent on the line is easily done. Agreed, though - paying 3 times for the same software would be insane, especially at MS prices
