This might be a little more complex than the title suggests.
My partner and I have almost identical computers with the only differences being the hard drives, GPU, PSU and Windows Versions. I have Windows 10 on my machine installed (upgraded for free) while he still has Windows 7 installed on his.
Now it seems like that a certain part of his computer has broken, as the comuter wont boot anymore - so I took the hard drives out of my computer and put his hard drive into mine so he can continue using a computer with his stuff until we manage to fix/replace the problem in his computer.
The problem is that Windows comes up with it's pathetic reactivation thing because his hard drive was moved into my PC (despite them being almost identical).
My question now is:
If he reactivates Windows 7 on my hardware using his own HDD (for the time being only) will I have to reactive my Windows 10 as well if I move my HDD back into my own PC (it's just been removed and laying in a shelf right now)?
