Win 10 reactivation after motherboard change
Probably should be asking this on Win 10 forums but already had an account here so...
My motherboard died, going to replace with a different brand. I never created an MS account to retain my license because I didn't know about it. My Win 10 installation is an upgrade from Win 7 Pro DVD. How can I retain my installation after motherboard swap? Someone was claiming that I can just re-enter my Win 7 license key when it asks to reactivate, but this sounds like it'd be too easy.
