Hello people I have recently changed my CPU, Motherboard and RAMs so I was planning on reinstalling windows on my PC. Last time I installed Windows was probably or so 10 years ago and I can’t remember for the life of me how I activated it.

Any recommendations on activating the new install? Or is it too much trouble nowadays and should I just buy a key?

      I’m an avid Void user, so I get the value of linux. But I cringe every time I see a comment like this. The OP has asked a specific question about a specific version of a specific OS. Someone asking about an OS should not be considered an invitation to tell them about another.

        It’s like going on a car sub where someone’s asking how to repair the brakes on a Ford Focus, and someone replying “Well I have a Hyundai i20 and it doesn’t have that problem”

          More like going on a car sub where someone is asking for a specific car for free, and someone replying “well I have a different car you can have for free”

    I just used the injector or whatever I got with the LTSC ISO. No trouble whatsoever.
