Windows 10 DPK via Dell Digital Locker


Dell has introduced the new Windows 10 Digital Product Key (DPK) Activation process
through the Dell Digital Locker (DDL) for specific Precision Rack, Wyse and IoT.
These products are offered with Windows 10 Long Term Servicing Branch
(LTSB)/Embedded and non-Windows 10 Operating System (OS), but with a slight
variation in the DPK process.

can help the Technical Support (TS) to handle the DPK via DDL queries effectively.
The other Line-Of-Businesses (LOB's) are not affected by the new process and will
continue with DPK being pre-injected to the systemboard.
