Refund windows license - brand new HP desktop PC
02-27-2021 06:43 PM

Hi,
I bought a new HP Pavilion Gaming TG01-0102nc but I don't want Windows 10 on my machine. How can I request refund for the license I didn't agree with? The windows is not activated, I didn't even turned the PC on yet.
PC was purchased in EU - Czech Republic.
Thank you,
H.

Hello
you must find the conditions of your reseller and or HP directly, of your country!
I found an item from a seller but in France it says HP does not offer Windows refunds
We find more and more computers, without windows installed, it may be a reason!
In addition it is mentioned that you may lose the warranty, I don't know if this is possible or true, but I prefer to warn you
The refund if there is may not be what you expect
Windows if you buy it is around 140 € depending on the version purchased (box version), but for the refund, it must be much less

I found this interesting article dated back to 2007. http://phk.freebsd.dk/MicrosoftSkat/bilag_03.pdf
I believe there is a way but it's gonna be a painful one.
