How many Windows license keys can be connected to one Microsoft account?

Question

Thursday, August 4, 2016 3:33 PM

Hello!
I have several computers with several different Windows licenses - both Home and Pro N and non-N versions. Can I link them all to my account (and keep the licenses valid) or I have to make different accounts for each license? I want to use the option to link a license to an account, which was made possible with the Anniversary update. I have asked the question on answers.microsoft.com and they redirected me to here. Here is the original thread:

Thank you!

Hi,

That's the limit for Microsoft account connected to PCs.

I don't think there is any limit on License you have or buy.

Windows 10 limits the installation of apps to 10 devices if you use the same Microsoft account.

You can't control your devices by clicking the link below

Thank you!
So this means I can have up to 10 PC Windows licenses with the same Microsoft account? That is enough for me.

Thank you a lot!
