windows re-license question
so after changing mobo from rma, my windows 10 is unlicensed now, so how do i re-license my windows 10 on the same brand of motherboard -z170p- but not the same physical motherboard?
i got the windows 7 first, installed it in this pc like 2 months ago... then upgraded it to windows 10.
how do i re-license and what do i need to show to microsoft... apart from my windows 7 cdkey?

Google windows phone activation. Find the toll free number and use skype. Probably you wouldn't even have to talk with a real person.Originally Posted by furiousTaher
If logging in to your MS account does not work, restart computer and see if it says it's activated. If not, then phone activation.
why do i need to login to my ms account? i dont have online windows account... i created a local offline account in win10.
noob question, how do i call microsoft in skype free?
if i go there http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/w...-in-windows-10 , it has a customer support icon... then i click chat with microsoft employee live but nothing happens... it says an error occurred... and it doesnt have any call microsoft employee in skype option.
Win10 activation is saved in the MS account. When I changed MOBOs, I logged in and everything else was taken care of.
Btw, you should be able to activate 10 using your 7 key.
repu added... seems like writing the windows7 key again worked....
Although you have already solved your problem, just for future reference, you'll have to run "slui 4" from windows run command, select a country and it will give you a phone number to call and an installation ID to use. Some countries have free phone and some doesn't. Usually choosing USA gives a free phone and you can call that with skype.
