If he upgraded, it doesn't check if it was a clean installation.

I reached out to Microsoft support for assistance. The question was about the source of the friend's license key.

It's attached to a label on his case. (He got a custom-built PC)

It seems the transition from Windows 7/8.1 to Windows 10 didn’t go as planned. The process was meant to transform your current license into a Windows 10 activation key, but it failed somewhere along the way.

He got Windows 10 from Microsoft's site without the installer, which is really problematic!

Tell him to try another computer if needed, and get the program from the link provided. He’ll need a USB drive or blank DVD, though it should work with his Windows 8.1 OEM key.

You can press the shift key while clicking restart in Windows, then use the troubleshooting options to go back to an earlier version. This usually resolves the issue.
