  1. Cant activate Win 10 after a reinstall


    The question yields not the pc I'm on now.

    Another pc had problems with running some games I like, Microsoft games. It came up "gathering exception data" often when launchin the game or during gaming.

    After reinstall I got new features but also I was told to activate windows. I typed in the code from the package but was told it wasn't guilty.

    I noted that I had got the professional version instead of the home version.

    I cant know why cause I used the dvd in the package.

    probably this is the reason, my code doesn't fit with the upgrade I didn't ask for.


    What to do in this situation.


    Regards / Hans

  3. How to reinstall Windows 10 if my computers used the free upgrade from 7 and 8?

    1 of my laptop has win 7, but not ufei so the key is not in the bios, but I did use the internet after I upgraded to win 10, so it's safe for me to just wipe and reinstall win 10 with win 7 key?

    seems like my win 8 machine will be fine with the ufei thing.

  4. Cant activate Win 10 after a reinstall

    How to reinstall Windows 10 if my computers used the free upgrade from 7 and 8?

    Will windows 10 still accept the license keys from 7 and 8 now if I reinstall my computer?

    Does Microsoft keep a list of users who upgraded to Win 10 using their 7 and 8 keys so that when users need to reinstall windows 10 the old keys would work?

    Do I need to call in Microsoft to ask them to activate my Windows 10 when I give them my win 7 keys?

    Both computers are laptops. The windows 7 machine had the serial printed on the back, and I needed to enter that when I upgraded to 10. The windows 8 machine had the serial built in inside its boot system so I didn't need to enter the key when I upgraded to 10, but I did manage to write down the keys using a fetcher program.
