[SER6 MAX] Win11 license in BIOS or in Beelink image?

Ltek

Is the Windows 11 license in the BIOS or embedded in the stock SER6 install image?

I'm cloning my old PC (Win10 pro) to the SER6.
If I ever rebuild the SER6 MAX to new / stock, will the Win11 license work automatically / without needing to know the license code?  Assuming I install Beelink's Win11 image (downloading this now)?

thx!

I reinstalled windows and mine activated automatically when I went online.

Hello there,

The license is embeded into the system.
If you change another system, you need to apply for a new license key.

Please clarify what you mean on your comments...

"embedded in the system" means which ...
a) in SER6 MAX BIOS
or
b) in the Win11 OS image Beelink provides?

If I install a Win10 image which I own the license, can I later change to the Beelink Win11 image and use the Win11 image license that came with the SER6 MAX?

I replied you earlier that windows activated automatically, so is in BIOS. Also, if you have Win 11 license, you can downgrade to Windows 10 and it will activate with same license. I hope this helps.

The Windows 11 license is not embedded directly in the computer's BIOS or in the original SER6 installation image. Instead, Windows 11 licenses are managed through a Microsoft software activation mechanism.

hello, the license is embedded into the system rather than in the BIOS

Is the Windows 11 license stored on the hard drive?

So you can replace the hard drive and install a new Windows which will then be activated automatically?
