These are then saved on Microsoft servers, along with your PC details. If you clean install Windows the first time, you may face activation problems. If you completed an upgrade the first time, activated Windows 10, and then clean installed Windows 10 on the same PC, then there will be no activation issues, as the OS will pull activation details from Microsoft servers.
