Hey there. The title summarizes everything well. You're considering moving from a laptop to a PC and are curious about sharing Windows 10. Also, you want to know if the transfer will retain a Windows 10 copy on your laptop while you travel.

You purchased a single Windows 10 license for one PC or notebook. You may attempt to activate your device using your notebook license, though success depends on how long the notebook remains active under that license. Remember this violates the Windows licensing terms.

Microsoft isn't primarily a sharing-oriented company. Your OEM laptop is yours.

After turning on the new machine, the previous one will be turned off.

It's not accurate. After activation, Windows remains active until you uninstall it or modify the hardware settings.

Windows 10 is a complimentary upgrade from Windows 7 and later versions. If you already have Windows installed on your PC, simply upgrade. Otherwise, obtain a Windows 8 activation key—you found one for £3 on eBay—and proceed with the upgrade. You may use your primary key, though it might be restricted.

Typically, Windows 10 licenses begin near £10, while Windows 8 is available for £3-4 and can be upgraded. Alternatively, consider using an unregistered copy if you're okay with the watermark.
