Since its official release on October 5, 2021, Windows 11 has attracted users with significant enhancements over Windows 10, including features like AI-powered Copilot and improved multitasking. When you install or change your Windows version, the system asks for a Windows 11 product key. This article explains the different types of publicly available generic keys and what they are actually used for.
Important
The keys listed in this article are not free licenses. They will not give you a permanently activated, genuine copy of Windows 11.
- These are generic installation keys (also called placeholder or default keys).
- Their only purpose is to tell the Windows installer which version to install (e.g., Home or Pro).
- Using these keys will result in an unactivated version of Windows 11. You will still need to purchase a valid, unique license from Microsoft to activate your system.
Windows 11 RTM Generic Keys
You can use these keys during the installation process if you don’t have your real key available. This will allow you to complete the setup. After installation, you will need to go to Settings > System > Activation to enter a genuine product key or purchase a digital license.

How to Genuinely Activate Windows 11
To activate a legitimate copy of Windows 11, you must have a unique 25-character product key. The most common ways to get one are:
- Free Upgrade: If you have a genuinely activated Windows 10, you can upgrade to Windows 11 for free. The upgrade will use your Windows 10 digital license, and no new key is needed.
- Purchase a New PC: New PCs come with Windows 11 pre-installed and activated with an OEM license.
- Buy a License: You can purchase a retail copy directly from the Microsoft Store or an authorized retailer.

Utilicé Windows 11 Pro gratis, pero se bloqueó después de una semana, luego busqué y encontré la odosta store, que creo que es un sitio legítimo de Microsoft debido a su servicio posventa.
