Curious about having 2 activated win10 pro on my Asus 2 in 1 laptop.
When I bought this laptop, it had a single copy on win10 pro, activated to my Microsoft account with a digital license, and it still does but I never boot to it anymore as it is on the original terrible slow abysmal sata 3tb drive that came with the PC.
I had an unused copy of win7 pro, which I decided to put on a new NVME drive on this PC, and I then upgraded it to win10 pro. And activated it to my Microsoft account digital license.
So then 2 activated win10 pro I have on here.
My thinking at the time was reliability of always having access to a win10 OS in case one had a problem, I could quickly select the other installed win 10 pro. And it is so slow with that drive, I will never need it or use it.
But its been so good with this Western Digital NVME drive, I dont need the other installed win10 pro and its way behind on updates, I have not logged onto it in 6 months or more.
How could I recycle that win 10 pro install to a new machine?
Login and reset it? Login to MS web account and do something there?

So dont worry about me, I will figure it out on my own, I often solve my own problems without any assistance.
Still amazed that one guy on here told me the PC could not run windows 10, even though it was running windows 10. As soon as he had found out I built it and not an oem system, it was a dud to him. I told him I did not believe a word he had said, and I was right. That was my thread on making the 5.1 sound work.
