I have been struggling to decide what to do with my old rendering machines… But they are getting less useful for rendering by the day.

I encountered some Ukrainian refugees in my language class, and some of them don’t have PCs.

It must be hard for them to look up information etc.

I want to clean up my old machines and donate them… But won’t have a Windows licence. I’m also not sure the best way to install Windows if they will be using Russian or Ukrainian language.

Is there a cheap Windows licence or free for Windows this situation?

In the old days I would have pirated it but I don’t want to put them in that situation.

Grey market sites like G2A and Kinguin have windows licenses for cheap.

Kinguin is great but it does require a phone call which is disappointing.

Really? I’ve bought Win10 keys on Kinguin before and I don’t think I’ve had to do that before. It’s been over a year since I’ve used them though.

For me it required I activate via a phone. Was no big deal, took about 5 minutes.

At that point is morally better to just pirate it

Those keys are working but legally unlicensed (usually for testing purposes only for msdn members)
