How to Uninstall Product Key to Deactivate Windows 10 Published by Shawn Brink Category: Installation & Upgrade 20 Jan 2020 How to Uninstall Product Key to Deactivate Windows 10 Activation helps verify that your copy of Windows is genuine and hasn’t been used on more devices than the Microsoft Software License Terms allow. I'd like to sell it. So to keep win 10 on it but deactivate the product key they would just have to what buy a product key?

Context Explanation

Deactivating key does not deactivate Windows. According to EULA, if you have an oem key, that cannot be transferred to new pc. If key is retail, you either sell pc with windows and key, or you keep key and wipe windows. I did chat with a Microsoft rep today, and they advised me to activate the product key on my new PC which will deactivate the license on the stolen one.

Insight Material

I asked if they could deactivate the stolen key right now, but they said they cannot. My situation is that I ordered a new computer, and would like to deactivate my current one and use my current key on the new computer. Is this possible? Yes. I cannot find a way to officially deactivate it so that I can activate on my new Win 10 machine.

Final Conclusion

If I uninstall it from my old machine, does MS somehow know this and then make it possible to add to my new machine?
