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!

Yeah if it's just for Plex something like Endeavour OS would be pretty much painless.

Definitely easier than fighting a key.

Kinda hijacking but I can't believe how easy endeavor is, like t2linux for mac's is a mess but half the drivers aur just HAD naturally, and the installation was fully automatic

Yeah I've been recommending Arch based did for a while. Personally I'm on void and Alpine, but as a first distro things like Cachy and Endeavour are unrivalled.
