Archive it and put it on Drive. I'm unsure about the piracy stuff, my Windows 10 is activated legitimately. I didn't know Ten Forums were so stuck up. If you used KMS or something, you could temporarily uninstall so it doesn't show? I dunno. You can make a separate topic here and tag me so I get a notification, but BleepingComputer would likely have people that are way more skilled than I am at this.
The only evidence is no Build Number greater than 19041.1 has shown up since 19041.1 was released on 11 Dec.
ok, what about 19536 that released on 16th Dec? Is that from 20H2 branch? Also, in 19041.1 build, does it have the insider watermark & the expiry date? And upon a fresh/clean installation, insider programmes are running or not?
HWID and other than the upgrade path from 7,8,8.1... not in house but google can show you the way or as it can't be discussed openly on the forums, you can PM someone about it.
When using those (mostly) not really legit keys all can happen. You can run the key thru a key checker to see what it is: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/simplepidx-simple-yet-powerful-product-key-checker.80300/
thank you. the tool just 'says': "Specified key is not valid" anyway, regardless of my PK, are there known ways, beyond "slui 4", to at least make phone activation wizard show up, or maybe having tried a non legit key might have removed any chances to even just display that ui item ? (or maybe it does not show up for reasons not related to the PK i tried to use ?)
