So upgraded my hardware and cant reactivate my Windows Licence, did the upgrade path from Windows XP, to Windows 10 Pro ages ago,  licence details are long gone, possibly was a volume licence of some sort, honestly cant remember.

 

 

 

Anyway decided I will just buy a new licence.

 

 

 

Are their any issues with using the resellers like below?

 

 

 

https://license.co.nz/windows-10/?gclid=Cj0KCQiApb2bBhDYARIsAChHC9tFfSkznZL0xNcOTrXYEqKcJD0E1DhMpXlAuuMXLslvxlnb9RltTV8aAlf3EALw_wcB

 

 

 

Can anyone suggest the best one to use?

I wouldn't touch that website with someone else's 10 foot barge pole.. It screams illegitimate, even if googling the company didn't show it as being German owned and with at least one site warning teh are a fake/scam company.

 

If you want a legitimate, legal, license, buy it from somewhere like PB Tech. Anywhere selling really cheap licenses is either a scam, or selling stolen/misrepresented licenses.

I've bought keys from SCDKeys over the last few years, and they've been flawless. I even had cause to call Microsoft about activation, and they told me straight that the keys were fine.

 

This youtuber (Tech Yes City) responded to the same questions about the same company (that sponsors his vids, so bias...?) and came to the same conclusion after calling MS - they were fine.

That depends on your definition of "fine. If you mean it activates "fine" and you are "fine" with fraudulently obtaining a license, then yeah, I guess they are "fine". If you mean it's legitimate obtained, then no, they are nto "fine". Just because they activate and aren't blacklisted (yet) doesn't make them legitimate. Don't try and kid yourself that you are doing anything other than ripping Microsoft off.
