I know they don’t do them any more.
Lots of places offer the codes, £2.88 here.
Might be worth the risk.

Either you want to be legit, in which case pay the Microsoft tax (£110ish?).
Or you don't care about a truly legit key, and just want activated windows and therefore want a key for about £10-20. In which case, it might be a genuine key but you're not \"allowed\" to use it. So why give £10 to (usually) organised criminals?
Just run the script that activates windows instantly and for free!"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/discussions/genuine-windows-10-pro-product-key-4096824#comment-49696965","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jameshothothot"},"datePublished":"2023-03-04T22:35:36.000Z","text":"Allkeyshop for price compare.
