Windows Activation (lemmy.world)

Hello people I have recently changed my CPU, Motherboard and RAMs so I was planning on reinstalling windows on my PC. Last time I installed Windows was probably or so 10 years ago and I can't remember for the life of me how I activated it.

Any recommendations on activating the new install? Or is it too much trouble nowadays and should I just buy a key?

I don't have any recommendation beyond what has already been said but if none of the solutions work or seem too much to handle and you don't absolutely need windows for whatever reason (mostly work, if gaming is what you're worrying about Linux works fine usually now that steam is pushing for more conpatibility) I'd rather recommend you try out Linux Mint (or Nobara if you want all the gaming stuff to be setup for you already) instead of buying windows as it will save you money and time.
