Does virtualizing your current hardware with VMWare make a vm that will pass Win10 activation?

Here's the scenario

1. Virtualize hardware with VMWare 12.
2. Upgrade vm with Windows 10.
3. Sometime later delete vm.
4. Upgrade actual computer to Win 10.

Will it activate?
 
I would say no. VMWare will present a different hardware system than your bare metal system. Easier would be backup your system, upgrade to Win 10, roll back to your old OS that way you get the"free" upgrade.
