Question about Microsoft Windows 11 Home

To activate Windows 11 Home and receive the digital key, follow these steps, as the digital key is not downloaded directly to a stick, but rather by purchasing it and linking it to your Microsoft account:

## Purchase and download
- Purchase Windows 11 Home from the Microsoft Store app or from an authorised reseller. You will receive a confirmation email containing the digital key or the instructions to retrieve the key.

## Activation with digital licence
- If you purchased Windows 11 Home, the digital key will be automatically linked to your Microsoft account. Make sure you are signed in with the same Microsoft account that is linked to the digital licence.

## Installation and activation
- Download the installation tool from the official Microsoft website and create a bootable USB drive.
- Complete the installation and select the "I don't have a product key" option when prompted to enter one. Windows 11 will be activated automatically after installation if you are logged in with the correct Microsoft account.

You cannot download the digital key directly to a stick, but must obtain it by purchasing it and linking it to your Microsoft account.
