For the avoidance of doubt: I installed it as a guest, I did not try to
run it live. In my experiences it's required to activate Windows 10
either legally or I've heard via a Chinese activation service, which
doesn't imply a security risk, but most likely isn't legal. Since nobody
should break the law to harm Microsoft, don't google for a Chinese
activation service, don't use it for free as in beer. However, using it
would be _no_ security risk.
