  1. Buying a Win 11 pre-installed desktop after using Win 10-home desktop


    Hi,I was previously using a desktop with Win 10-home activated. When Win 11 was available, my desktop machine unfortunately did not qualify for the free upgrade due to its hardware.I recently bought a Win 11 home pre-installed desktop after my previous machine died. It asks me to activate windows and when I get to the Reactivation portion, clicking then I made significate hardware changes, it lists my old machine with Win 10 that died and asks if it is the current machine I am using. It does not list my actual Win 11 machine that I am using.What should I do? My Windows digital license was Win

  2. Buying a Win 11 pre-installed desktop after using Win 10-home desktop

    Hi,

    I was previously using a desktop with Win 10-home activated. When Win 11 was available, my desktop machine unfortunately did not qualify for the free upgrade due to its hardware.

    I recently bought a Win 11 home pre-installed desktop after my previous machine died. It asks me to activate windows and when I get to the Reactivation portion, clicking then I made significate hardware changes, it lists my old machine with Win 10 that died and asks if it is the current machine I am using. It does not list my actual Win 11 machine that I am using.

    What should I do?

    My Windows digital license was Win 10-home and I was not able to upgrade due to hardware. I changed to a new set up and the license now does not match with Win 11 edition.

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.
