Default Re: Windows 10 Key - Alternative Marketplaces

An OEM key will likely work, however it would be "grey market". As mentioned OEM keys are only supposed to be sold with a computer, by a computer manufacturer, not separately.

Microsoft was allowing free upgrades from Windows 7+ to Windows 10, you could just enter your old Windows key in when prompted during Windows 10 install. As far as I know this still works, just FYI..
