I currently have a windows 10 pro oem key activated on my pc and i was wondering if i reformat my pc will i need to buy another key or can i just reuse the key when i boot my pc with the windows 10 iso that i installed on my iso. I was just wondering cause an oem key ties to your motherboard.

If so, no problem.
