Common questions:

Q: Will Windows 11 OEM keys work if I reformat my PC?

A: Yes, Windows 11 OEM keys are reusable on the same PC after a reformat. The activation is tied to your motherboard, so as long as it remains unchanged, Windows will automatically reactivate after reinstalling.


Q: Which hardware component is the OEM key tied to?

A: OEM keys are tied to the motherboard. If you replace the motherboard, the key may no longer work as Microsoft treats it as a new PC. Other components like the CPU, GPU, RAM, or storage can be upgraded without affecting activation.


Q: What happens if I replace my motherboard?

A: A replaced motherboard typically invalidates the OEM key, as it's considered a new PC. You'll need a new license. However, you can contact Microsoft support to attempt revalidation of the key in cases of hardware failure.


Q: How do I reactivate Windows 11 after reformatting?

A: During installation, skip the product key step. Windows will automatically check the hardware ID stored in Microsoft's activation servers and reactivate. If activation doesn't happen automatically, go to Settings > System > Activation and use the Troubleshoot option or your Microsoft Account linked to the license.


Q: Can I transfer an OEM key to another PC?

A: No, OEM keys are non-transferable and tied to the original PC's motherboard. For transferability, consider a retail license, which allows activation on a different PC.
