Hello,

Currently on my laptop is Windows 10 Professional 64bit French-France activated by an OEM key (slmgr /dli gives OEM_DM channel) and my laptop is eligible for a Windows 11 upgrade.

I want to do a clean Windows 11 install, if I use Windows 11 English-United Kingdom .iso, will it be activated with OEM key?

Good day infgrs! I am glad to be able to provide assistance to you today. I understand that you are checking if Window 11 will be activated if you use a Windows 11 English-United Kingdom ISO. The license or the OEM key from your device should and will still activate as it will be the one to be carried over if you were to install Windows 11. You can also check out the links below for reference with regards to doing a clean install for Windows 11.
