I mean, if next i want to do clean format Win 10 without upgrade from Win 8... Is it the key for current Win 10 can use? |

Let say my HDD spoil and i would start from scratch. When prompted to insert product key, just press "Skip" and it will automatically activated itself after boot into Windows if you are connected to the Internet. It would take time if i need to format Window 8 first then upgrade to Windows 10. So my question, just format direct to Windows 10 using key i get from AIDA64 "WITHOUT" install and upgrade from Windows 8.. |
