  1. Cannot migrate Windows 10 Education to a new PC


    Dear Madams and Sires,

    until recently I had had Windows 7 on my old laptop. After the end of its support this year, I decided to build a new PC and use the Windows 10 Education later referred to as Win 10 provided by my university. I followed the instructions, built a USB boot device and tried to install Win 10 on my new PC - but to no avail. Now I think the outdated BIOS was the problem, but back then I decided to install Win 10 on my old laptop and migrate to the new PC afterwards. I did not know that it is possible not to activate the Windows for some time, so I did it. In the meantime, I fixed the BIOS-related error, installed Win 10 on the new PC - and was unable to activate it. I have found the information on your website that it is possible because my Windows 7 was not an OEM-version. But when I try to activate the system on my new PC, it gives me an Error Code 0xC004C008. Could you please help me to activate Win 10 on my new computer?

    Best regards,
    Wassili Dimitriew

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
