    Everyone btw the OEM can be tied to your Microsoft account. So just sign in on new computer and it can transfer over. Even if that doesn't work Microsoft will usually help with the transfer for free. Don't buy a new windows key when you don't have to.

      Just wondering what to do. Or if it a digital license, and if it is a digital license can anyone that has that product key which lets say is attached to there Microsoft account still be able to transfer the license to another computer?

      volume_mak licenses are for business customers who buy in volume. They get a single key that can activate multiple copies of Windows. They are not supposed to be sold to end users. So unless you are a business who has purchased a volume license as such, you have the wrong type of license.

      Hi, it means you have a non system locked version of OEM, so you will require the key every time you reinstall Windows on that same machine, ias such is not tied to your BIOS.
