I realise this thread is overdue being killed, but as its gone OT. If I have a licence for win 7 on a dual boot computer, does that licence cover the use of win 7 run in a VM booted in to linux. Still the same machine ?? Thanks
*Licensing the Windows Desktop Operating System* __For Windows operating system software licensed through retail (FPP) or preinstalled on a PC (OEM), Windows use rights are outlined in the Software License Terms that accompany the software. These license terms provide use rights to run Windows *locally* on the licensed device in a virtual operating system environment (OSE); however they do not provide use rights for accessing Windows running *remotely* in a virtual OSE from the licensed device, and are limited in other ways when compared to virtualization use rights provided with Windows Software Assurance, Windows Intune, and Windows VDA licenses acquired through Microsoft Volume Licensing. For example, neither FPP nor OEM licenses permit remote access to a Windows virtual machine (VM) running in a datacenter. For this, a license obtained through Microsoft Volume Licensing is required.
