Here I leave you some useful links with information about Windows 10 licenses

I also want to say that this type of cheap licenses that are sold on the internet may not be totally legal, the sale price of microsoft is one and only one, this is the case in the official micrososft store and in other computer sales stores, Maybe you can see a little cheaper prices, but never such great discounts.
on ebay, amazon and other digital stores there are licensing offers for 8,10,15,20 etc ... dollars.
But no license that costs less than 100 dollars can be totally legal.
They are usually licenses created with keygen, others come from Microsoft Msdn (they are licenses for development subscribers) and I don't know how many more methods they use.
These types of licenses work, perfectly, almost always, but it does not mean that they are legal for sale to the public.
If we do a check of our cheap license, possibly it says Retail, the Msdn licenses indicate this, but they are not for sale to the public.
there are other legal methods to install and activate windows
downloading Media Creation Tools from its official website
and creating a usb or dvd installation media.
once I do this:
method 1:
install windows 10 from scratch : any genuine windos 7 or windows 8 key can be entered at the time of installation, it will work.
(provided it has not been used for these purposes before)
method 2:
upgrade from windows7 or windows 8.1 already installed and genuinely activated with the official windows10 upgrade26807.exe tool.
(I think the latest version of this file will also work, just go here and select update now
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software.../windows10 )
There is also some more method, although a little more complicated
Microsoft has left some holes to continue installing Windows 10 totally free, legally and without using cracks or keygens.
In summary, if you want to install windows 10 from scratch, you only need your old key from windows 7 or windows 8.
if you want to upgrade to windows 10 you will need an old file of windows 10upgradexxxxx.exe
(I think the latest version of this file will also work, just go here and select update now
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 )
I forgot to say that if you are going to install from scratch with a key from a home version of windows 7 or 8 you should choose windows 10 home
if your version is professional or ultimate you should choose windows 10 pro
You should also know that once Windows 10 is installed and activated on your computer, you can always install it again.
on the same computer
without entering the license number (microsoft remember your computer)
just in case you change the CPU or motherboard it will not be possible
if you change the hard drive it will activate without problems
