that’s a good question and I’m not sure. Worth it to find out, but personally I don’t dual boot with Windows. I just have my main linux install and use a virtual machine. I never have needed to use a windows virtual machine but it would be interesting if I could activate it with the copy that came with my laptop.
Unless that copy is registered to my microsoft account? I have no idea that’s how much I try to avoid windows now
Thank you for your reply, this is helpful to know.
That’s what I currently do as well, I just backup particular .config subfolders and other directories. I’ll probably continue to avoid just raw transferring an entire home directory on a new install.
