Update (Clarification)
I ordered this PC from a very reliable store. I told them what parts I want (CPU, GPU, chassis, etc.), and they assembled it. Since I did not request an OS, they made sure that I'm aware that an OS is not included in the order. The PC arrived without any boot record, as expected. Even if the assemblers connected the machine to the internet, Windows was not installed, so no activation could happen upon assembly.
I bought a brand new desktop PC; it was assembled from all brand new parts.
I created a Windows 10 (20H2) installation media using the tool from Microsoft's website.
During the installation I clicked on "I don't have a product key" to skip activation.
Now, on Licensing it shows me that it is "activated with a digital license".
Executing slmgr /xpr results in "the machine is permanently activated".
It really bugs me. How is this possible?
