Dell optiplex - how to transfer windows pro license to new SSD?

Jump

  • This is the correct answer. Dell, and other oems, have stored their windows keys in firmware on motherboards for years now. You could literally install on a fresh drive and it should auto activate. Typically at most you have to go to click activate yourself.

    This is all assuming the machine came with a pro license and wasn't upgraded of course. It should have a sticker on it.

    • Plex permission denied adding files to library.

  • Also thank you for pointing this out. Not sure how I missed this. I already looked in the passwd file to make sure it was an actual user account, they're right next to exciter and had the same uid. You saved me a boat load of time trying to figure that one out. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

  • This was the issue. I did an update recently of truenas and apparently the polkitd user took over the uid for my plex account. Unfortunately it looks like this also caused some level of corruption since even changing the uid and gid haven't fixed the issue and plex is borked.

    Luckily I have backups, so not all is lost, and even if it was, I could probably just regenerate that data.

  • Artificial scents make me break out, dry my skin out (in a bad way), gives me headaches, cause rashes, and/or cause excessive itching. Nickle, which is in many deodorants, causes rashes and chemical burns, literally had my neck bleed from a shit nickle necklace. Most deodorants will literally hurt me. Sure there are more "natural" ones, but they always feel gross or smell gross.

    Sorry if it bothers you, but I'd rather not bleed from my arm pits.

    Also people that use axe spray in small spaces, e.g. elevators, can get fucked.

  • How does this have any effect on work provided laptops? No job I've ever had gave me full control of the software installed in my laptop.

  • I did the same thing. I have a Neptune 3 pro. The front goes up a touch and the back goes down about half a mm. I just pushed down on the front and pulled up on the back edge a bit to attempt at least a bit of correction. Seems to have helped a little bit. I've been considering printing some soft jaws for my vice and trying to tweak it a smidge more.

    Definitely need to be careful doing this or the bed or heating elements can be damaged irreparably. Damaged heating elements are potentially dangerous.
