Hi @dashvanth0303 

 

If you purchased the laptop with windows installed, the license is stored in the BIOS in digital form, you just install windows and it takes the license from the BIOS and activates windows.

It is simple, you have to create an installation USB with windows, then install windows and follow the steps, the license is taken from the BIOS automatically.
