Hi,

I bought a new freedos laptop, there was an original win 7 licensed Asus laptop from 2010 at home. When I didn't understand these things very much, when the computer guys were formatting, they were always crack formatting, they were still cracked win 10 installed on that Asus laptop.
I know that the win 11 keys I bought a new laptop are very expensive, I entered the key under the old laptop. Windows 11 Home is activated on the new device.
Does this cause a problem virus etc. or any other problem.

Also, I downloaded the ShowKeyPlus application from the MS Store to check the key, it seems that a different key is defined to the device than the key I defined. What could be the cause of this?
