While in most scenarios, transferring a Windows 11 license (product key) to another device isn't something that regular users need to do, there are many situations when such process may come in handy.

Usually, transferring the product key could be a good way to save money if you're building a new computer, and you're planning to retire your previous system. You need to move the license to another virtual machine. You're about to sell your computer, but you want to keep the license. Or you're working with a macOS device, and you want to work with Windows 11 using Boot Camp, but you don't want to pay again for another copy.

Although moving a license to a new machine can be a straightforward process, you might be able to do this only depending on how Windows 11 was originally obtained.

How to tell if a Windows 11 product key is transferable
If you have purchased a retail copy of Windows 11, then you're entitled to transfer the license to another device multiple times. The same is true when upgrading a retail copy of Windows 8.x or Windows 7 to Windows 11, and you want to move the product key to another device.

Generally speaking, you can transfer a retail license as many times as you need, but depending on the scenario, and the number of times you transferred a product key, you may start getting an activation error. When this happens, you'll need to contact Microsoft to explain the situation and fully activate.

On the other hand, when purchasing a new computer with Windows 11 pre-installed, you're getting an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) license. This means that you're not allowed to transfer the product key to another device (under the Microsoft rules). The same will be true when upgrading a device that came with Windows 8.x or Windows 7 pre-installed, because these are OEM licenses, after upgrading to Windows 11, the machine will inherit the OEM rights.

If you have an OEM license, you'll need to purchase a device that comes with Windows 11 pre-installed, or purchase a retail copy of Windows 11.
