Windows 8 requesting activation on already active PC keys

I do not understand. I bought my PC there is with Windows 8 already on it for three years. A year ago I upgraded to 8.1 and then reduced to Windows 8 due to a virus. As a result, I had about 200 updates which had to be re-installed. I'm now updating Windows 8 a little at once.  Today, Windows Defender is sending me messages about the publication of an activation code. I have not given that Windows 8 is already on the PC when I bought it. And this isn't a cracked version... can someone help me?

They key you can enter is only the key OEM-BIOS because it is the embedded key that should activate Windows 8, unless the version has been installed.

Open a command prompt, type slui 4, press ENTER.  Follow the prompts to update activation in MS Servers.  If activation fails, stay on the line to speak with an agent to explain what you're doing and ask for help.

If this operation fails in your response: download, install, and run MGADiag.exe.

Copy and paste the report into the response box.

Remember that you can anytime own 8.1 Windows Installer

and activate the procedure described in step 4.

You can also Install Clean Windows 10 Upgrade and activate directly after installation with the WIndows product key 8 as specified in Version 1511 FAQ activation in Windows 10 .

  • Refreshed Windows 8 now, it says my WIndows is not active

    Then I got a virus and decided to restore my laptop. Now it says that Windows is not active product key does not work, try a different key or buy a new one. It's *. A few months ago Samsung has replaced the motherboard for this thing, which seems to be the problem. But now Microsoft and Samsung give me the run around. I'm upset royally. Oh and I noticed the sticker windows fraying on the background of this laptop a few months ago, now it seems to be fallen off. This better not serious, I bought this darn thing directly to Samsung new with windows 8 preinstalled. I still have my receipt. I need this resolved now!

    MP3

    First of all, it is a site of peer to peer, made up mainly of volunteers who have little or no contact with Microsoft, so even if it was the fault of MS, we do nothing here.

    Second, if your windows came pre-installed it is called OEM and the key is linked to the original material.  A sure thing to kick off the trigger "invalid" is to replace the motherboard. It's something samsung knows and should be supported.

    Thirdly if it is still under warranty (and samsungs replacing the mobo would indicate this) they should be through it all or complete replacement of the computer.

    I wish we could help here, but we have even less influence you do because at least you own.

    Hello, Pichon,

    If Windows Vista application unexpected activation

    On rare occasions, you may be prompted to activate Windows Vista on a computer that did not previously require Windows Vista activation or has already been activated successfully. For example, this may occur on a computer on which Windows Vista was preinstalled by an OEM installation or Volume licensing and are major hardware changes occurred, such as upgrading the hard disk and memory at the same time.

    If you are prompted to reactivate Windows Vista, you can do this by using the Windows Activation Wizard to:

    1. Click Start, and then click computer.
    2. Click System Properties on the toolbar, and then click click here to activate Windows now in the Windows activation area. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click continue.
    3. Select the Windows Vista activation method that you want, and then follow the instructions.

    To avoid this problem in the future, obtain the latest service pack for your version of Windows Vista, either through automatic updates or direct download.

    To update to Windows Vista and prevent this activation problem does not happen:

    1. Click Start, click all programs, and then click Windows Update.
    2. Click find updates.
    3. As soon as Windows Vista found the updates, click the install updates button.

    However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

    15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

    So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

    It's a good idea to keep track that uses a bunch of Audio channels selected in the arrange window, unless you actively play or record on a software Instrument.

    Which no longer applies in Logic Pro X 10.2.3. In old versions of logic, selecting a range with a software instrument automatically would make this instrument in "Live" mode, which means that the instrument has begun to transform any MIDI in sound with a minimum of delay. This direct mode becomes an instrument need CPU power (on a single processor) and peut overload the audio engine. It is a waste of CPU if there is no direct game. Then select an audio track would ensure that No instrument is in direct mode. Now (LPX 10.2.2 or more) in direct mode can be turned on or off on a track, chosen or not - it is the R button on the track header.

    It's a Volume license activation error.

    KMS is Key Management Service (KMS)

    Looks like you've been scammed.

    But KMS server active client computers for a period of 180 days and you say you've had work done last April, which means that the error must have been appearing earlier.

    I try to activate a version of Windows XP on a virtual machine created recently of an old machine that we have here before the asset being disarmed. Unfortunately, when you try to run the virtual machine, we are facing a window to activate product, for which the product key auto-remplit. The product key, however, is labeled not allowed.

    I tried tirelessly to communicate with support staff of Microsoft who after the mention of "XP", do not hesitate to cut me and reject any statement that I do, however, it is a product we paid for, so as a result we have the right to install this license where we please provide that we stick to licensing agreements. The license will not be used at the same time.

    If you like, would be a way to have this license authorized or authenticated, be put in place, so we can use this virtual machine.
