Selling my motherboard. How do I "unactivate" Windows 10 on it?
So I'm upgrading the processor on my gaming computer. Therefore, I need to sell the motherboard.
On this computer, originally it had Windows 7, later upgraded to Windows 10.
Since W10 uses hardware activation, how do I "un-activate" Windows 10 on this motherboard? I don't want to give the new owner a free W10 license (Sorry, I'm not that nice).
If it matters, I had RETAIL Windows 7 Home Premium before upgrading to W10. This SHOULD allow me to install and activate W7 on my new motherboard with no issues, and then later upgrade to W10, right?
