Complete removal of Windows 10 license

Hi,

I would like to sell my old desktop computer, but I have a problem about the license keys associated to that computer.

This computer is bound with three digital licenses:

-one obtained free with the Insider program
-one, originally for the 8.1 Home version, then upgraded to Windows 10 Home
-the third one, a Windows 10 Pro license

Now, I would like to avoid let activate this computer with one of my licenses, but I don't know if there is a method of avoiding that if someone install Windows 10 skipping the product key this computer will be activated with one of my old licenses.

Any advice?

Thanks

Anyway, I think that Microsoft should do something about managing the Windows licenses, because, at this time, it is a complete mess.

My advice would be to not let things bother you that you have no control over. Raise the selling price of the computer by $20 stating that it has a genuine digital license for Windows 10 Pro. If they ask for the product key it is:
VK7JG-NPHTM-C97JM-9MPGT-3V66T

@Bree and @NavyLCDR: thanks to you both.

For the drive you can run diskpart clean or clean all:
Erase Disk using Diskpart Clean Command in Windows 10


If Windows is reinstalled before the sale you can run this script to see some of the licensing data:
