Windows 10: Asus t100 TA windows re-install after crash: Windows 8.1 Key not working on Windows 10...

Hi everyone


I hava an Asus Transformer book T100, purchased with Windows 8.1. I was able to upgrade to Windows 10 and everything was working fine until a windows update broke my system, which was stuck in a boot loop. I had to reinstall windows, but I am not able to install Windows 10 with my original Windows 8.1 activation key.


Could anyone please help? Is there any way I can re-install Windows 10 with my Windows 8.1 key?


Thanks

Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

Now that I have finally upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 10 will my Windows 8 key work with a fresh install of Windows 10?

Google and download the "Windows 10 media creation tool"

Create a USB flash drive ISO and that's all you need...it will work without needing a key..
Just skip past entering a key during full install and delete all partitions, format, create new drive and install...

As long as you have upgraded from Windows 8 first...you need to do that prior to using your Windows 8 key for 10.
