Windows 11 Pro License – Is Buying from Unofficial Sites Risky?

Out of curiosity and budget limits, I tried getting a Windows 11 Pro license key for 13 Dollars from a third-party seller Noxkeys. It activated with no problem, and everything seems okay.

Has anyone else tried this? Just trying to understand if it’s a normal workaround or if I should expect issues in the future.

Maybe a volume licence, try running the following in CMD to give you some idea of the licence you have.

slmgr /dli

in many years using a unofficial, I haven’t experienced any issues.

No worries! You can use it for a long time without any problems. The worst-case scenario is that someone else might try to claim the key, but there’s no risk of hacking or a virus attack. By the way, $13 seems a bit too expensive for that.
