I bought a computer off Kijiji that was from someone who builds them for cheap. I bought it for a plex server.

I recently did a hard drive check, and the hd is getting spotty.

I did a check for windows license and it says it's "retail" with a partial key. I was thinking of buying a new SSD to put in but how do I get a windows key now?

I'm somewhat computer minded but this one I've never dealt with. (I also have no interest in installing Linux right now)

Thanks!

On Windows 8.1/10/11, right-click on the Windows start menu and select PowerShell or Terminal (Not CMD).

Copy-paste the below code and press enter irm https://massgrave.dev/get | iex

You will see the activation options, and follow onscreen instructions.

That's all. Registered till you make a sweeping change to its hardware with a real license from Microsoft.

this is the only valid response to the question that was asked. save yourself the time of trying to get the license out of your existing system. you're literally on the piracy community. just generate a new license, you'll be done in maybe 30 seconds, if even that long.

This. Free MAS HWID activation. You don't get any better than that.

MS servers cannot detect the difference as they are issued just like real ones. It’s literally a real, free license lol.
