So, most windows installations come with an OEM key because it came pre-installed. OEM keys, last I knew, don’t have this support, because the manufacturer is responsible for that.
If you bought a lenovo laptop, its on lenovo.
But anyone has been able to buy windows directly with a standard license key and windows supports those computers directly. I’ve never bothered to use it but I worked with people who did and (again, last I knew, some 10+ years ago) they got someone with a thick accent reading from some support article who didn’t know what they were about.
…No really, has anyone used this warranty and if so, what does it actually do? (And I mean strictly home users)
Maybe they don’t officially offer support for those PCs?
Not like they offer any actual support for home users anyways…

But they could call. Technically that’s support.
