Woot! has New Microsoft Windows 11 Operating System OEM Key Digital Download Home $17.99 or Pro $19.99. Activation code is delivered to your email address. OEM key has a lifetime license for the device that it is activated on, with free updates for as long as this operating system is supported by Microsoft.

EDIT: Per comments below, there seems to be some YMMV regarding validity or previous issuance of these keys. I have no personal experience with them, so please do your diligence prior to purchase. Woot seems to be better than most at owning up if there is a problem after purchase, although all correspondence with them is by email.

ATTENTION: Your redemption code will be delivered as tracking number within a few business days. You will receive your serial number(s) to authorize and register your product as your tracking number.

• Less chaos, more calm. The refreshed design of Windows 11 enables you to do what you want effortlessly.
• Biometric logins. Encrypted authentication. And, of course, advanced antivirus defenses. Everything you need, plus more, to protect you against the latest cyberthreats.
• Make the most of your screen space with snap layouts, desktops, and seamless redocking.
• Widgets makes staying up-to-date with the content you love and the news you care about, simple.
• Stay in touch with friends and family with Microsoft Teams, which can be seamlessly integrated into your taskbar.
• Genuine Microsoft OEM license key
• One key per device

You'll receive a redemption code (serial number, a 25-character, alphanumeric serial number for each program) allowing you to instantly download the program for your desktop or laptop device. Requires a PC or laptop computer. Not compatible with iOS (iPad, iPhone), Android (tablets) or Chromebook devices. Internet connection required for online activation.

Looks like Win 11 is sold out but Win 10 is still in stock despite saying sold out on the home page:

They are functionally equivalent since you can "upgrade" to Win 11 for free. You might even be able to activate Win 11 with a Win 10 key.

Worked for me. I was able to purchase 11 pro.

Commenting that this has worked fine for me a few times.

In my experience, it says it will 'ship' but it will actually arrive via email with the Windows key as the tracking number.

You just gave some people a reason to buy these now.

Free. Only takes a few minutes to do it. I've been using this for years. No reason to pay Microsoft. Your telemetry data is what's important anyway. They sell that to data companies.

Ridiculous that Windows 11 took away vertical taskbars... will be using Windows 10 as long as I can until they bring that back.

In my experience, if the code you get doesn't activate with a message that it's already used, call the Microsoft number it gives you and the automated system will unlock the key.

These are more expensive than other grey keys and have no greater protection. Don't expect the key to be good if you don't use it right away and if you wait longer than 30-90 days it may be impossible to get a refund

I've also heard that these sales go to support unfriendly aliens from other worlds, people that don't bathe regularly, and those who don't change their car's oil when they should. And people who are chronically late for appointments. Lots of reasons not to buy this from a division of Amazon, one of the world's largest retailers.

I'll never buy from Woot again over the $60 bucks they stole from me with the three fake keys they sold me. Told me to get lost because I had extended the warranty period. Why would I need a warranty period if the keys should have been legit. Don't do it, don't buy these!

Quote from UniqueEducation741 :
i personally purchased a bunch of keys from woot thinking its backed by amazon and the keys would be legit turns out most of keys dont work ( appear to have been already activated )
ironically when i contacted woot they initially refused to even offer a refund , after several emails back and forth , i got a refund for all keys , be careful i believe these keys are shared between different customer and sold multiple times , please avoid
How did you manage to get the refund? I bought a key long time ago stupidly thinking that woot is better than some shady seller on ebay and I can just hold on to the key until I need it. Sure thing it doesn't work now and response from woot is "it's more than 90 days, not our problem"
