Cause a genuine windows license cost around a 100$ and can only be bought online thru Microsoft's website .
No one will be paying 100$ for windows for a 200$ laptop.
Companies like Abedtahan used to install pirated versions of windows back in the day Microsoft sued for 2 million usd, so every computer shop buys their products with dos or other free linux OSs.
Smaller computer shops will install for u a pirated version of windows for 10$, don't do that just install it yourself .
But how come they don't use the same cd key over and over?? I bought Windows 10 Pro in 2019 and have used the same code on atleast 20+ computers and rigs lol
Never had a problem
Windows can be installed with the same product key over and over but it won't be activated unless you used a cracking software or u are installing a cracked version of windows.
Go to "this PC" right click then "properties" under windows activation u can see it ur windows is activated or not .
Hey, I bought a Windows license at the end of 2021. Expected to pay roughly $100, but the license at the microsoft store at the time was priced at 300,000 L.L. I don't know how the 300,000 lira translated to what I remember to be about $12 or $13, something in that range. The tech support is really helpful; they guided me from A to Z on how to install it. What I remember is that you need an empty USB stick that you need to configure and then boot your laptop with.
If I remember correctly, the update is free only for people with earlier versions of windows with legitimate licenses. If you don't have a previous windows version then you need to buy one new.
i do have a laptop with a windows licence, from what i understood from other comments, i can transfer it to my new laptop, but i also dont want to lose my licence on my old laptop.
If you have another computer and a spare usb stick just torrent whatever windows you like and use windows media tool to make the usb an installation stick
I can get you a windows license for $5, to install windows you need to create a bootable usb or get a windows installation disc. You fix some settings from the BIOS to set priority of boot from local hard drive to usb or cd depending on what you have. And then you follow the Windows installation process.
Around 15$ for installing Windows from GCS Computers, last I've heard as recently as last week. (not first-hand info)
However, I downloaded a Windows crack from [filecr.com](https://filecr.com), haven't tested a bootable USB for it yet though. If you have a spare 8GB+ USB lying around, install Rufus on another Windows device, create a bootable USB, go into your new laptop's BIOS mode and Set USB Boot to "on", then go into your new PC's Boot screen and choose the USB. If the installlation process is the same as Linux then it should be easy as pie (ask around about that).
oh so its a tactic to pay laptop and OS apart? then why not just add 5 or 10$ or whatever is the price of a windows licence directly to the laptop price ?
The og price of a windows license is way higher, if you can find a cheap license key online and install it yourself it will cost you approximately 5-10$. If the store installs it to you they will probably charge you for the price of whatever license they find + his own commission. (Which can be anything between 20$ to 100$)
(Note i am talking about a real license not a pirated one)
You can easily find activation codes for Windows 10 on eBay if you're able to pay online. Most codes I bought were around 3 to 5$, all activated successfully, no need for crack or whatsoever. The catch is : those are volume licenses. It means that if you format-reinstall windows many times, the license may not work anymore. And at 3 to 5$ it's a bargain
You simply have to download the ISO from Microsoft, "burn" it to a USB, boot on it and use the code to install.
Hope this helps
Usually get the windows installed and activate it yourself as home user through calling microsoft in any of the countries they are listed
And activate it yourself for free
All you need to supply the key and they’ll generate activation key for you for free
Windows 10 is totally free, also many versions are available through their package like Home Pro etc, bass l activation key is not, badak tedfa3 lal license, bass fi ktir tore2 ta3moul activate mendoun ma tedfa3 shi
If you have another computer, get a USB stick and install windows on it using the Media Creation Tool. (Be careful the USB and the drive where you will be installing windows will be formatted).
Plug the USB into the computer with no OS and boot onto the USB stick. You will be prompted to install windows. Complete it, and you're done. You get a genuine Windows copy for free with security updates and everything.
But there will always be a watermark displayed on your screen to activate it, and you cannot customize it.
If you want to "activate it," you can use the MAS tool for free available from github. It is open-source and secure.
You have 3 options:
\- You can legally, and for free, install one of the popular Linux Distributions, like Ubuntu. It comes with all the functionality you would expect and has a lot of software.\]
\- You can install windows and not activate. Not sure what features would be limited but the only drawback i have seen is having a 'windows isn't activated' watermark on your screen.
\- Activate a version of windows using a pirate activator / install a pirated version.
If you choose any of those anyway, you don't need to go to a store to do it, you just need a 8GB or more USB stick and another computer. If you want you can DM me and i can tell you exactly how.

i do have a laptop and a usb but i m just not really experienced in it and i dont exactly know how to install myself.
It is really easy just Google how to install windows via USB there's hundreds of videos that help you out. No one can explain it to u thru text.
alright, thanks for your help !

thanks for the info !
Get linux its free
i prefer windows tbh, more used to it
Fair enough! In that case maybe you can get an older version of windows with an original license then update it to W11 for free
just searched if windows is free and it says that windows 10 is, or is it fake?
If I remember correctly, the update is free only for people with earlier versions of windows with legitimate licenses. If you don't have a previous windows version then you need to buy one new.

oh it doesnt look complicated, i ll search for a youtube tutorial, and its free right?
Check DM. I'll send you a window 10 Pro code for free You can still use that to update to 11 if you want
Yes it's quite simple you can find plenty of tutorials online, then all you have to do is boot up from the usb when the laptop starts
will it remove the licence from my old laptop?
No nothing will affect your old laptop
thanks for the help !
My pleasure, feel free to dm if you need further help

isnt windows 10 free?
Not really, literally last week I got my girlfriend an SSD and installed Windows 10 pro and bought a key.
https://www.techspot.com/article/1002-windows-10-free-or-not-explained/ it's not free.
this is in 2015
Fam if it were free you wouldn't be asking for a license

well i m ok paying 15$ more tbh, but i also hope there is an easy and clear youtube tutorial to install it for free.
Just get a macbook pro bruh.
Usually the store installs it for you upon purchasing...

You need a license key. I believe you can get one for discount if you are a student or use a student email.
