Can I change Windows 7 product key (license) between desktop computers and laptop?

I have two win7 ultimate licenses A and B. B has more restrictive there is a days. I use to upgrade and activate one of my Desktop_A license offices. But now I would like to use the license on a Macbook; and use the license B on Desktop_A. is it possible to exchange keys between two machines?

Or do I have to uninstall win7 on Desktop_A in order to "unlock" A license? If so, how to uninstall (OS Win7 is on the hard drive C: partition)? Format the C: drive?

Thank you!

Should not be a problem, simply click Start, right-click computer, click Properties > scroll down, to the title of the Windows Activation, click on the change link key product, enter your license Windows 7 Ultimate B key, and then proceed with the installation of license A on the Macbook. Please note that you will need to re-activate the two using the automated telephone system because they were already in use:

Activate Windows 7 manually:
1. click on start and in the search for box type: slui.exe 4

2. press enter on your keyboard

3. Select your country.
4. Select the telephone activation option and brace yourself for a real person.

  • Cannot change Windows 7 product key

    Hello

    My computer says that I don't have Windows genuine. If I go on the computer properties the Activation of Windows area is not displayed if I could change my product key, slui.exe also does not open. I run command prompt and type slmgr.vbs - ipk and none that works. The operating system will not want to work more?

    Your computer has a version of the OEM - SLP Windows 7 Ultimate installed.  Due to the fact that several critical system files have been tampered with, you will not be able to change the product key.  You need to reinstall your Windows 7 operating system using the recovery method recommended by the manufacturer of your computer.

  • How to change Windows 7 product key

    Windows recently told me that my copy of Windows is not genuine. I got this copy for a little over a year and a half now with the problems. So I bought another key and any of the other options seem to be working. This includes: Enter system properties and then clicking on the 'change product key' (option is not there), the use of slmgr.vbs in command prompt (command not recognized) and using "activate windows" (does not open). I have included a copy of my journal MGADiag for help.

  • Where to change Windows 7 product key if there is no option in workstation, do a right click - Properties

    I have it has not enabled during installation because I had not noticed it. Now I can't find where to enter it. I tried in my computer, right click-> properties but there is no option that I had before I reinstall 'change product key '. I tried Control Panel-> system, but it's always the same window.

    Thank you

    The key in the report is the default key - which can be activated in any procedure.

    If you managed to 'activate by the normal procedure', then you have an installation of counterfeiting.

    MGADiag may actually have fixed the minor problems with your operating system - which then allowed you to change the key and activate this one.

  • Can I install Windows 7 product key on office and reinstall it on the new laptop when it arrives?

    Hello everyone, I had to order a laptop for school. But it is still not there, so I had to install windows 7 and office 2010 on my old computer at home to do my school work. When my laptop is here, can I reinstall XP on my old computer and put my copy of windows 7 on the new laptop? Or is the product key now linked to my old computer?

    If you have purchased commercial versions, then you're OK.

    If you have bought OEM Windows 7 and activated, then the license is locked to the old PC (although you might try to discuss your case with MS)

    Hello

    I have a scenario:

    I buy a key Windows 8 K1. I installed it on my desktop. Then I bought another key K2 (Windows 8 Pro). I changed the product key on my desk of K1 K2.

    Now, the question is what I do with my old key K1? Since it is installed/activated anymore anywhere, I can (legally) install it on any computer?

    Thanks in advance.

    1. press the Windows key + X , and then clickrun, and then type: slui.exe 4


    2. then press the ENTER"" key.

    3. Select your "country" in the list.

  • Problem with Microsoft account won't let me sync between desktop PC and laptop (Windows 8) custom settings

    Hello
     
    Synchronization of the custom (for example, my desktop background) settings does not work between my desktop PC and my laptop and vice versa (both running Windows 8). I use my Microsoft account (so no premises) on both devices and have already checked the relevant synchronization (which are lit) settings. In addition, I used the "microsoftaccounts.diagcab", however unsuccessfully fix tool:
     
    Troubleshooting completed, problems found:
    • Problem with the Microsoft account strategy: don't not fixed
    • Some settings have disabled sync: detected (which is false)
    • Customization have disabled synchronization (which is false)
    • You have reached the daily quota of the synchronization. The quota of synchronization fade gradually. Please try again later.
     
    However, as a matter of fact sync was working, after I had created and used a new account from Microsoft on both devices. so I suspect something to be a problem with my original Microsoft account. Could you please check this account on your site and let me know your results?
     
    PS My original Microsoft account (that I created there) is the same account that I used to connect to this forum. If you need more information, please let me know!
     
    Thanks in advance!
     
    Kind regards
    Victor Alberts.

    It worked perfectly for me:

    Follow these steps:

    1. Make sure that the synchronization of personal settings is enabled on all the PC associated with your account
    2. Go here and follow the instructions: http://skydrive.live.com/win8personalsettingsprivacy
    3. Wait a day or two
    4. Do this it fixes going in charms bar and selecting settings-> change PC settings.  On the accounts section, there is a link under your Microsoft e-mail account called 'Disconnect '.  If you click on it and follow the instructions create you a local computer account and then log off from Windows.  Once you connect with your local account, go back to the account settings and reconnect to your account.

    Solved all my problems of synchronization.

    I hope this helps for you also!
