Unactivated Windows 10 Question

[rijsco]

I plan on building a pc but dont have money for windows at the moment so I was going to put windows 10 on it un activated and then at about December I will buy a windows 10 key and activate it.

 

So this is the question :

Will after some time windows lock me out and demand for me to activate it if I want to have to access to my pc or will it just pop up now and then that windows needs activation but I can just use it normally?

All that will happen is that you can't customize the computer and there is a watermark in the bottom right.

Ah thanks good to know.

Thanks for your help I can now rest easy without worrying that after some time windows will lock me out .

No it won't lock you out, you can use it without activating.

If you want there are also ways to remove the watermark and change personalization settings.
