Clean install of W10 not possible in Virtual Machine.
Clean install of W10 not possible in Virtual Machine it won't activate. I just thought I would report one of my testings.
I installed windows 7 retail in the virtual machine and it activated. I upgraded to windows 10 and it activated. I did a clean install of windows 10 and it didn't activate and it says specific product key has been blocked. I guess the only way to run windows 10 in a virtual machine is to upgrade from windows 7 retail. Clean install feature won't work in a virtual machine
(It still might be possible if you are in the insider program or if your purchased windows 10 outright this was not tested)
