Probably not a legit key though. The whole "use this dummy key to upgrade" thing kind of gives it away. If it was a legit key, you wouldn't need that. You'd just put the key in, and Windows 10 would upgrade to Windows 10 Pro. It might activate today, but I bet if you try to do a re-install in a few months and re-activate it won't. Heck, it will probably de-activate in a few months anyway, now that Windows 10 does a re-activation every few months, and if it can't re-activate after so many months it de-activates itself(maybe 3 months).
Just to clear it up, I wasn't trying to be negative. The ISO links are nice to have in case you can't get the media creation tool to work for some reason. Like you only have a Mac, but just built your first gaming PC.
Maybe, just as a suggestion, use the media creation tool to download the ISO with both, and upload that to Dropbox as well. That would be a great alternate source for it.
I can actually look into hosting them myself as well for you. So you can put direct links in the first post to the ISO again instead of going through drop box.
I'm on their support chat now asking.
Hi there
i bought a win 10 pro key today, and someone on my tech forum said this- Probably not a legit key though. The whole "use this dummy key to upgrade" thing kind of gives it away. If it was a legit key, you wouldn't need that. You'd just put the key in, and Windows 10 would upgrade to Windows 10 Pro
are the keys genuine?

Keys are 100% genuine, you are complaining about the process to get PRO, not the key
We have a 0% block rate, and over 105.000 sales
and provide a 1 year warranty
I guess the person on the tech forum is not that tech savvy
i'm not complaining. my key activated fine. i bought my machine and it had been activated with a vlk key.
i just thought i would ask is all
This are genuine OEM keys, only difference with tthe ones you see on MS store is that this ones are for 1 computer only
