    Can't activate Windows 10 key. Tried troubleshooter, Get Help, etc.


    Greetings.So I am having some issues getting my Windows 10 Home Key activated on my new PC. The key is purchased from Microsoft so did not come from a PC.This isn't the first time the key as been activated and previously I have had no issues. I have had my old PC for many years but recently decided to upgrade everything, so it's a new PC. I activated windows on the new PC with no issues, unfortunately the motherboard or CPU was faulty so I had to return them both and I bought new of the exact same components. And no, I did not uninstall the product key before doing so on either... I wasn't awa

    Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
    I won't buy a key, stupid.

    I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

    When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
    is that causing the problem?
