Rivets, you won't lose Win10 - once a system has been upgraded to Win10 it has "digital entitlement" to Win10. MS keeps a hardware "fingerprint" on record and uses that to "authenticate" the system, meaning if you reinstall Win10 this fingerprint is used as the means of authentication rather than you (or the firmware) providing the key. There is no "proper key".
