The absence of a Genuine Microsoft label does not indicate that the preinstalled Windows version is not

There are no external, visual indicators of the Product ID or Windows version for which the computer is

installed, the installation program checks the computer firmware for a valid, matching Product ID to complete
the activation.
In some cases, an earlier Windows version might be preinstalled under the terms of the Windows 10 Pro
license downgrade rights.
