I want to perform a fresh install for a refurbished laptop; but I heard that the product keys for a refurbished computer may not be "compatible" with the retail Windows 8 used for reinstallation via the application from the windows website. Is this true? If I go ahead with a fresh install, should I use a keyfinder program beforehand? Even so, would it work?
Also, does Windows 8 offer phone verification like windows 7 did?
