There are 2 laptops that are completely non-working
They had windows 10 with stickers (OEM)
If I peel off these stickers (don't ask how) and stick them on another PC, completely different characteristics
Will I be able to activate these PCs from these stickers?
I'm only interested in one point: Is it activated or not, even if reinstallation is required

If it does not activate automatically, you will need to contact MS services, this is called "hardware replacement" https://support.microsoft.com/ru-ru/help/20530/win...

No, you cannot re-stick stickers. The OEM license is valid only for the hardware with which it was sold.

Paradox: why change the truth check to chatter on a toaster?! Install and test - much more reliable.

In fact, no one will interfere. If a private person, then there is an upgrade of iron. By phone, they definitely activate it - it's checked. If the office, then depending on the documents. In general, an OEM license does not prohibit computer upgrades, incl. and motherboard.
