Buzzme Posted Thursday at 11:04 PM Share Posted Thursday at 11:04 PM (edited) I got to use computer from a relative. They have a MS account and they gave me their login for the computer and it's a Windows 11 upgraded from a Windows 10 so it is a HP pavilion desktop 595-P 000 84 desktop. It had originally Windows 10 on it and it was upgraded to Windows 11. The upgrade was the upgrade that was free at the time so it must have those special TPM chips inside. To my surprise I found the C drive is completely full and is in the red so I figured I would just reimage the computer but if I reimage it I'd like to know is there a way for me to be able to keep the windows 11 and not be registered in a Microsoft account? I did run Belarc Advisor and I did get the software License. How do I go about the reimage? Edited Thursday at 11:23 PM by Buzzme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBig Posted yesterday at 12:24 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:24 AM @BuzzmeI imagine its a digital license linked to that MS account, you can reset Windows or make a clean installation, and since that is not your account, just activate it with MAS and link it to your own MS account.
