    active windows applications getting brighter than the non active ones


    Some how I got the questions if I wanted to make the active window or the active application brighter and make the non-active windows dimmers or darker, so now if I have two apps opened, the one selected is brighter and the rest of the apps are darker. Seems like a great function but its getting annoying because when I have two file explorer apps opened to move files in between directories, the none active screen is darker and it is complicated to see what is going on.

  3. Windows 10 not getting activated.

    Hi Johncy,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I can imagine the inconvenience you have experienced. I will definitely help you with this.

    To guide you in right direction we want to know:

    • Have you activated your Previous version of Windows?

    Windows is not activated as your previous version of Windows, your device was not activated prior to upgrade to Windows 10

    We suggest you to follow the below steps and check:

    • Go to Start.
    • Select Settings .
    • Go to Update & security.
    • Go Activation .
    • Click Change product key.
    • Enter your Windows 10, Windows 8 or Windows 7 and click Next
      to complete activation.

    If the issue still persist get back to us.

    Keep us posted if you face any issues on windows in future. We will be glad to help you.

    Windows 10 pro activation

    Hi,

    If you upgraded to Windows 10 for free and ended up in a non-activated state, try following these steps:

    • Select the Start button, then select Settings > Update & security >
      Activation.
    • If your activation status is Connect to the Internet to activate Windows, select Activate to manually activate Windows. If this doesn’t work, you can contact customer support.

    For your reference, we suggest to check the article below when updating Windows 10
