Default Product Key and deployment


I have 10 Windows XPe Runtime image product keys (PID) for 10 units to deploy to

I have cloned an image and am able to create unique SID's and computer names for each unit

But do I not need to enter the PID guid somewhere during the installation for each unit

I put one PID into the settings in Target designer, but was expecting to be asked for a new key for each clone I am creating

Am I doing this correctly? From a licensing point of view

Thanks

Hi,

Good news for you. You can use same PID number for all your devices,
assuming that you provide COA stickers with them.

As long as you have the license on the product you can use the same PID. A
new PID is needed when a new product is made.
