Personally, I would backup all my important data, then re install windows from scratch. The reasoning behind that is the many differences behind the scenes when working with ssds compared to hard drives. The main ones being TRIM commands and defragging.

yea I might have to go ahead and buy a new license, do you know if the ones that are sold on reddit are legit?
