Windows Activation (lemmy.world)

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?

Sorry for the double reply but do you know if this works for every version of Windows 10 or just specific ones?

should work on every version. Afaik the activation sequence is the same for all windows 10 versions so i can't see why it wouldn't work on some versions

Worked on 11, safe to assume works on all 10's

I've used it on probably 10+ windows systems that I've had to refresh/set up for various needs and people. I've never had it fail on any flavor of 10/11.
