License Transfer question
I have a new HP envy 17.3" laptop that came with W8.1. I have upgraded to W10.
I also have an older laptop, Toshiba Satellite P755/P750 that previously had W7 but was upgraded with a retail version of W8 then updated to W8.1. This was the Pro edition.
I upgraded to W10 before I purchased the new laptop. Once I had the new laptop I wanted to try and move the Pro license to the new laptop but it would not transfer as the new OS was OEM. I was told by MS to reinstall W8.1 from their website, upgrade to the latest version of 8.1 then upgrade to 10. Seems like an awful lot of work.
Can I update the OEM W10 by purchasing a new license and how much is it likely to cost?
Thanks,
Conor
