You'll need to reactivate windows.

You'll need to reactivate Windows and it's also a good idea to sysprep your Windows installation prior to changing your motherboard.

 

-Moved to CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory-

it is healthy to reinstall windows, you are moving from amd to intel, all the drivers won't work tho

Last month I upgraded my i5 4460 to a Ryzen 2600 keeping the same drives, it boots into windows directly. I did a fresh install of windows however afterward but you will boot without issue with windows 10

You do have to reactive windows. So if you bought a windows key from internet, watch if it's not a OEM version. If so, you might have to buy a new licence
