Can I buy a windows 11 digital license, and use that license to get an activated version of windows 10?

Currently my version of windows 10 isn't activated, and I cannot find a genuine product key or digital license for windows 10 so I wanted to know if I could buy a windows 11 license from Microsoft and use that to activate me windows 10?

Yes.

When Windows 10 or 11 is activated licensing data is entered into Microsoft servers.

This enables movement by clean installs.

Good day, thanks for your question. Windows 10 and Windows 11 have different product keys and licensing models. A Windows 11 license is specifically for Windows 11, and it will activate Windows 10 not unless it will be the other way around in which you have an activated Windows 10 in which you can use it to upgrade to Windows 11.
