Anyone have a good place to get cheap windows keys? Bought a few win 10 oem keys from a site a while back and they were great, can't remember from where though.

Why pay when you can:

No downloads or anything, just instal the official Windows from MS site and activate for free forever from the command line. Bosh, job done

How have I not known about this earlier? I'll give it a go, thanks

Super handy activation script, I've used it several times with no repercussions...enjoy!

This post is a few days old but I thought I'd mention that I recently bought Win 11 Pro OEM here: https://software.pcworld.com/
Apparently this is a legit licence unlike the grey-market ones you can get off Kinguin or something like that.

For years I've used https://m.vip-scdkey.com/ and the only issue I had was my dumb ass not reading something closely enough and getting a key I couldn't use until my next install. Just search for Windows or whatever.
