Registering XP Pro license

[Guest iam4psu]

I recently sold a computer with WXP Pro. Do I have to transfer the contact

information that is tied to the XP pro product ID? If so, do I contact

microsoft or Dell computers. If I need to contact Microsoft, what phone

number do I need?

Nope. Just make sure that the computer you sold is the ONLY one with

that product ID on it.

No. If the buyer needs to activate the software he does it himself the

normal way. Microsoft does not store any personal information relating to

activation that you can change anyway. They used to, but stopped several

years ago due to privacy concerns.

OK.

 

But there's no need to do anything, unless "transfer the install

media" means give the discs to the new owner.

Re: Registering XP Pro license

 

But no contact with MS is needed or even useful. The OP's question was

about whether or not he needed to tell MS about the transfer. He is

wondering if he has to remove himself from info about the OS at Microsoft.

In fact there is no info at MS linking him to the OS.

 

A user registers himself but activates software. The two are not linked.

 

The new owner needs do nothing either. If the system needs to be

reactivated at some point then he just reactivates. If he wants to register

himself as a user of XP then he can do that at any time. No personal data

is collected when you activate software and no product code is entered when

you register yourself as a user.
