Hello,
This I am going to ask today is a very controversial question and as I was doing my research on the web , I found out several answers that sometimes deny each other so this is why I'm here today.
I have a retail copy of windows 10 and I would like to install it on my current pc as I am changing the storage unit. In a few months I am going to actually upgrade my pc components included the motherboard to something for high-end. Will I be able to move the retail key to the new motherboard or will it stuck there? When I get the new one I'm going to hand my current pc over a friend of mine without a storage unit but with the same motherboard. Should I use the retail key or will I lose it for ever and wont be able to move it to another pc?
*Note* My current mobo has an OEM license key linked to it.
Thank you in advance.
