Hi all,
I have a question concerning Windows 10 Home.
I recently built a new pc (new mobo, new GFX card, new processor, new RAM). As every hardware component is new, I also decided to go for a fresh install of windows; I used the windows 10 media creation tool to install windows 10 home.
As I went for a new windows install, I thought I could use an OEM key code. However, I cannot successfully activate Windows using the OEM key code I got; the system gives the following error code: error 0xc004c060 (you do not have a valid licence or key)
If I run command prompt and check the installation (slmgr.vbs /dlv), the output shows the following:
description: Windows operating system: RETAIL channel
Product key channel: Retail
Does this imply that I have a windows 10 retail version? Or does the system identify my key code as being a retail key code instead of an OEM key code?
Subsequently, how can I resolve the current issue?
I hope that someone can help! Many thanks in advance.

Subsequently, how can I resolve the current issue?
- How do I install a windows 10 home OEM version to match with the OEM key code I have?
- Or do I need a retail key code?
I hope that someone can help! Many thanks in advance.
