  1. Accidently Changed Product key


    HiI brought a new laptop recently got notifications saying that I need to activate Windows although it said "Windows is activated using your company's something, but I kept on getting this notification which annoyed me so much so in my attempt to stop it I came across a YouTube video which said to write a certain command and the Next Thing I know it said product key changed successfully. But this key is invalid and I need to access my old one.I searched for solution to similar problem over here and I got to know that I need to submit my slmgr.vbs /dlv box screenshot

    :)

    Why was I not asked for a product key when upgrading to Win 10?

    According to your spec you have Win 10 Pro, but perhaps that doesn't reflect your PC.

    You haven't stated which edition of Win 10 you have on this machine, nor what your Win 10 key is for.

    For example, if you already have Win 10 Pro and your key is Win 10 Home, that would be a retrograde step.
