    Can't reactivate Windows 10


    I have a Windows 10 Home edition to which I upgraded from Windows 7 Home. A couple of days ago I noticed that the Windows started asking for activation, apparently due to the RAM swap. I've tried entering my Windows 7 product key but it was not accepted. I'm really baffled as to why all of a sudden my Windows got deactivated and I can't reactivate it with the Windows 7 key. I need help.

    :)

    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
