I don't have any recommendation beyond what has already been said but if none of the solutions work or seem too much to handle and you don't absolutely need windows for whatever reason (mostly work, if gaming is what you're worrying about Linux works fine usually now that steam is pushing for more conpatibility) I'd rather recommend you try out Linux Mint (or Nobara if you want all the gaming stuff to be setup for you already) instead of buying windows as it will save you money and time.
Seriously, not having to deal with activation crap and not having to unplug ethernet just to install a damn OS without having to login to an account is really nice.
Went through this recently. Had to get a new drive and install fresh and going through the setup process in windows 10 just broke my spirit. I downloaded Garuda Linux and havent even finished setting up windows.
Fr, even I've thought about switching to Linux for a while haha
