This may seem like a dumb question, but I haven't tried this myself before. I need to know if this is doable without too much hassle, if so I'll cancel my bid.
Can I still activate Windows 11 Pro with the window 10 pro OEM key on the same device now in 2024?
I plan to get a Dell 7740 that has no system installed on the SSD it will come with, but was tested with Windows 10 installed to check the laptop. I'm wondering if the OEM Windows 10P license that the laptop came with would still activate a new Windows 11 OS. Or do I need to install the original OS Windows 10 and let it activate that and then install Windows 11 ?
