I’m planning to replace the existing SSD within my Dell Optiplex pc. When I bought it, it came with an SSD that had a windows installation with pro license activated. Now, when I replace this with a new SSD, how do I transfer the license?

    As far as I know, Windows 10 licenses are on the motherboard/BIOS, so changing the harddrive should just work.

    I have heard some talk about the license getting disabled if you switch some hardware in machines as it no longer can identify it as the same machine.
