Activate Win10 with a Win 8 key from Arvato

Hello

I try to perform a clean install with my win 8 Pro activation key

(bought it thought Arvato 01/2013)

Why it doesn't work ?

Thanks in advance.

 

Windows 10 won't accept Product Key from Arvato supplied Windows 8 Pro


I purchased the $40 Cdn copy of Windows 8 Pro that Microsoft offered when 8 first was coming out. It was fulfilled by Arvato Digital Services, a company that Microsoft uses for these purposes. That product key activated fine and was upgraded to Windows 8.1

I am now trying to upgrade to Windows 10 and it refuses to accept the product key I was supplied. I tried to back out of the install and even with the memory stick removed it still tries to continue the install. I've tried both a clean install and an upgrade and it keeps rejecting the product key.

Has anyone run into this before and if so what might be the fix?
Thanks.

 

Location service is greyed out

Hi Shahriar,

Thank you for responding.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused for you, I suggest you to try the below troubleshooting steps and check If it helps.

Step 1: Steps to turn on the Location settings.

• Login as an administrator.
• Press Windows key, type Location settings and select
  Change location settings.
• Check whether Location for this device is On by clicking on
  Change.
• Also turn on Location as well.

Step 2: And as you are unable to set the service Geolocation service to automatic, I suggest you to run SFC scan and check.

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

Follow the below steps:

• 
  Right click on the Start button, click on
  Command Prompt (Admin).
  
• 
  Type “sfc /scannow” without the quotes and hit
  Enter.
  
• 
  After the scan, restart the computer and check for the issue.
  

Try to set the service to automatic by following the steps provided in the above post by Praveen Venugopal.

Hope it helps. Kindly update the status of the issue, we will be happy to help you.
