I reinstalled W10 Pro on my PC, but I lost my keys. I went to my online account and cleared all devices tied to my Microsoft Account. Now I’m concerned—did the PCs I removed still have W10 activated? Since I deleted them, I’m worried some of them might belong to friends’ machines. Thanks, Vizz.

Sure, I think so. If you remove a key from your account, the computer with that key will get disabled. Just make sure to re-enable it on your friend's PC.

It should function, though it will limit you to a test version of the system. Older or premium options won’t be accessible, and you may notice the watermark returning soon.
