I'grand upgrading my laptop to a SSD but realized that my laptop did not come with an installation disk but rather was pre installed. I got in touch with ASUS to provide me the product primal for my windows 10 simply I don't have a disk.

Is there anyway to get the files for windows installation if I take the production key?

If not, is there anyway effectually this other than ownership a whole new windows 10?

Thanks

1.
You lot tin can simply go to microsoft.com and download the right Win10 version (pro or home) for free accordingly to your license number.
Intsalling Win10 does not demand the license number, y'all demand the number simply to actuate Win10.

two.
About laptops have a backup of the factory Windows installtion somewhere in the HDD/SSD. You might but have to activate the factory reset to take a full fresh installation.
If you go buy an SSD, exercise you lot know that you can but clone your old HDD to the SSD? Total clone with all the partitions.

I know you lot can clone the one-time HDD onto the new SSD but I have no way to have both plugged in simultaneously to do this

Well-nigh laptops have a backup of the mill Windows installtion somewhere in the HDD/SSD.

It's non on HDD/SSD. Windows key really is embedded into BIOS on brand pc/laptops.

Most laptops have a backup of the manufacturing plant Windows installtion somewhere in the HDD/SSD.

Not the Windows cardinal.
Near laptops has really a factory standard image of the Os on a hidden partition.
You can activate the factory rest part.
Proceed in mind that yous will loose everything (data) on your current Windows past doing this.

I cloned already several Win10 laptops, I know about this.

Is in that location anyway to get the files for windows installation if I take the product key?
