No, AliExpress does not sell Windows keys directly. They typically offer software downloads or other digital products instead.
You can download the full version of Windows 10 for free and officially. The only limitation is changing the wallpaper, which includes a watermark in the lower right corner. Piracy isn't worth it—just doesn't make sense. Use the official installer and choose "I don’t have a key" when prompted.
Others have noted a few variations. You won’t be able to modify certain options. Although Microsoft tends to be flexible with its enforcement, you’ll need to purchase a license since the licensing conditions prevent unrestricted use of Windows: Whether it makes sense depends on your needs, but acquiring a license is recommended if you intend to use it.
Sorry, not aliexpress. The error was xD I purchased it on Ebay for 3,5€. When buying on Ebay, ensure the seller has many positive reviews.
I believe there are alternatives to work around that issue. Since you can run full W10 without a license, it might be better to skip it. If you need a license, buying one from eBay seems like a good idea. I don’t want to pay for W10 and don’t know how to get an enterprise license, so piracy is risky. Just avoid activated ISO versions—they probably won’t work or might contain viruses. I can’t go into details about piracy because forum rules suggest it’s okay for pirates, but eBay keys exist, so unless you really need Enterprise or another unusual edition, just pay the 3-5$.
