New laptop: product upgrade to Windows 10, confused activation Code.

Tried going to Win 10.  Machine directly from the factory, never used.

Requests product key as not active.  But as OEM no key available.

CTRL-X system says not active.  Press activate and it said: everything is done.    Option not on Metro "change PC settings."

Nothing unusual.  This should apply for 99% of users.

The solution is that, somehow, this machine hardly used became totally corrupt.  Wifi networking stopped and activation has been confused.

So a factory full reset (nothing else would do) and then everything worked correctly.

Lessons

  • The system report Windows-X of the activation status is significant noise and not only.  If it says not active there is a real problem to solve, even if the tricks of metro says it is activated.

Thanks for those who have tried to help.

  • Anyone know how to get a new existing product key of windows XP Professional 32-bit OS?

    NECESSARY EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE PLEASE!

    Hello

    Anyone know how to get a new existing product key of windows XP Professional 32-bit OS? (my key has reached the max limit).

    Please HELP URGENTLY if youi can as I have now just 1 day left to activate (& risk losing all my work in the last days where I reformatted and reloaded all programs, etc.). Really, I don't want to not upgrade to windows 7 (already tried) until I absolutely have to also really enjoy windows xp prof os - but complete support & can't buy more then? Download the new key or extend my use of existing key?

    PLSE Help!

    Thank you

    Angie

    There is no such thing as a "max usage limit" (other than to be in use on a single computer at a time) for a Windows XP product key.

    There is no limit to the number of times where you can reinstall and activate the same license of Windows XP on the same PC.  Is never a charge.  No more than a product key (as long as it is not an evaluation license) never expire.  If it's been more than 120 days you finally turned on this specific product key, you will probably be able to activate via the Internet without problem.  If it was less, you may need to do a five minute phone call.

    Here are the facts relating to activation:

    We cannot tell you that you can definitely improve 8.1 or 10.

    We provide only the information on the system requirements. Then, it is yours for a search.

    And they're both done with a clean installation (no upgrade path) and they are not free.

    Do the following before upgrade you to Windows 8.1.

    Check if the manufacturer of your computer/laptop has Windows 8 drivers available for your model.

    If this is not available, Windows 8/8.1 not install and work properly for you.

    I had an activation sequence ID longer and used the automated phone line and the phone system refused to give me a new activation code and suggested I was victim of software piracy.  I do not see is it possible to get support for it except paying Microsoft 199 books for their support.  What should I do next?

  • Unable to activate Windows, error wrong activation code

    I bought a 2006 Dell Studio 1555 with Windows 7 Pro/service pack of a member of my family about six weeks ago. It came with an installation disc (not OEM) and a key product, but when I did a reinstall of the computer keeps telling me that it is not the right activation code. It is also very slow during the update of Windows. I checked the product with Winkeyfinder 2.0 key and the program says it is the correct key but microsoft won't always validate. I have always used and had good results with Microsoft products up to now. I was just wondering if it is my mistake to correct or someone elses. I used windows os since version 1.0 and have never had this kind of problem. Please help me find an answer. Thank you
