      Just an fyi - Windows 11 is free for all that most users need. You don’t need to activate Windows to use it unless you want to use a few of the more advanced features. It never locks you out or anything, you just can’t change your desktop wallpaper.

          I honestly don’t think they care, otherwise they’d do what they used to which is make it not work without a license.

          The money isn’t in personal Windows licenses, it’s in people using their services and corporate. The more people using Windows the better for them, even if it’s free.
