Where to buy a windows licence?

Amazon is selling them for 30€ while windows wants 145€....

Any Windows user?

@stuxnet

Ubuntu is free 😜

Maybe... MAYBE that ghetto aftermarket 3rd party reseller license will work.

MAYBE.

Maybe you will save a substantial amount of money.

But... also MAYBE you will just get scammed and be out the money and still need Windows.

If you need a cheap OS get Linux... if you need Windows, I advise buying from MS, even for substantially more money. I have definitely seen people get burned on 3rd party licenses.

@Jilano

The iot version wat, pls no

Microsoft Toolkit is free

This seems appropriate at this juncture about windows:

lol here in germany you can have windows 10 oem for 5 €

@nebula tell me where?

If it's on eBay or the like, that's where I've got keys before, for personal use. I don't really give 2 hoots if it's technically legit quite frankly. If it's a scam then eBay will step in and give you a refund pronto, so usually these things check out.

If it's for business use though, different ball game - I'd always go legit. Cost isn't worth the potential trouble later.

I bought one a year ago from mmoga. I think they are wholesale OEM keys they buy and sell for like 15€

I have to agree with @AlmondSauce only buy these "grey-area" keys for a personal computer. Businesses can get a huge fine if regulatory bodies find out

i always buy the $5 version from ebay, had issues once out of about 20 times, and even then i got my money back

I used my old win7 key to register win10 for free, not sure if that’s still accepted though.

@webapp I did this with an old copy of licensed Win8 and then rolled it up to 10 for free within the last 3 months.

That is half my salary

am i allowed to provide cracks here? i have ones i've disassembled and can confirm is legit for win7 and win10

@Parzi no

@ScribeOfGoD figured...

@Jilano

Windows is the issue ;)
Well, we use it in our machines.
Imagine hundreds of thousands of Windows boxes that has not been updated since 2016.

Check ebay. I got mine for 1usd

I have several Win7 / Edu licenses (which work for Win10), but there's also my digital life.

@Jilano

Hahahhaahhahaha

Not allowed.
