          You don’t need to buy a key from your own pocket.

          Just be honest like I said in another reply. Ask for help. I’m sure he’ll help you out and you’ll be fine.

            Go with humility first, you screwed up. Follow it up with a joke about how you discovered a flaw in the configuration of work laptops, and now they can fix it to prevent someone else from being able to do that 🤷‍♂️ I think you’ll be ok

                Thanks, I thought of something even better. Slap Linux on that thing! Wipe the whole drive on “accident”. Linux is way more innocuous than pirate Windows 🤷‍♂️

      Just ask them to re-image it. An individually bought key might not pass audit. I recall my company getting audited by Adobe for Acrobat and we had to pay about $12k sure there were lots of individually purchased copies of Acrobat. Adobe did not care if we showed them the receipt for it.
