Building a new PC. Can I download Win 10 Pro again?
I know the title seems vague, but here is the scoop. A few years ago I had to purchase a new SSD for my C:\ drive. I also purchased a copy of Windows 10 Pro, but did not need to. I just downloaded it from Microsoft. That being said, it is time for me to build a new PC. My current PC will be given to a relative. I will pull off everything I need, then do a factory restore on the C:\ drive of the current PC. Here is where I need direction. Do I once again download Windows 10 Pro from Microsoft and install on my new build, or do I get the chance to use the Win 10 that I purchased from Best Buy? Someone on another forum suggested that I just take my old c:\ drive and put it in my new build. I thought that was a good idea then realized that all of the hardware is different and would confuse the OS. Any suggestions and recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
