You're buying grey market keys, basically pirated. tons of key resellers online. this is no more legitimate just because it's advertised on Groupon. they get their hands on some volume license and sell it until it gets shutdown. rinse and repeat. Microsoft doesn't often claw back the activations, but they could. if you're going to cheat Microsoft out of a legit copy, at least get it cheaper or free and don't reward these sketchy companies

You pay Groupon, who gives a cut to Slickdeals, takes a cut, and pays out the actual seller

The end of life date for Windows 10 is October 14, 2025.

Some apps like Turbo Tax will not run on an OS no longer supported.

When I was a working man, the LAN at work would not accept logins from an OS no longer supported.

But almost all other apps will work for years if you are just browsing the net and doing email and so on. Windows 95 still works.

Best place to buy OS systems, I've bought two from here and both times are legit. Don't buy from anywhere else

Doesn't mean it won't get revoked later these are grey market keys might as well activate it for free.

Yup, and the grey market keys always end up deactivated. So if you don't mind your Windows being deactivated probably every few months, maybe not a bad deal.

Windows should be free considering the amount of advertising and telemetry in it

Unless you are building a computer from scratch, 99% of people shouldn't ever need to purchase a windows key. A windows key is hardcoded into the firmware of most pre-built desktops and laptops already. It automatically gets passed to the OS when you clean install the OS from MS's site, you never enter a key.
