Windows licensing issue

Question

Sign in to vote
Hi,

My question is: I'm a developer and I currently have a student version of Windows and Visual Studio Community 2017. My question is, if I write code and it winds up selling, is it my code or will I have a legal issue because I am using a student version of windows.

thanks,

Matt Goralka

I would ask in a Visual Studio forum, such as here:

Edit: Another pace to ask is here:
