Windows 10: Did the latest update(s) impact your product keys?

Yesterday, a watermark appeared (bottom right corner) issuing that the windows product key was not to be found, and requested to check (settings > activation). I've playing offline for the past week so I didn't check any updates. The issue's been resolved, well ALMOST, however I suspect that it was because of the update that error (0x8007000D) occurred. After installing the update and restarting the computer, the watermark has gone, but the error is still there and the troubleshooting doesn't help it. I suspect it will appear again.

NOTE, the Device I use is a refurbished one.

Intel Gives Core i3 and Core i5 Dual-Core Processors K0 Stepping Update

Intel is giving some existing 32 nm "Clarkdale" based Core i3 and Core i5 processors an update. The processors will transition to the new K0 stepping from the existing C2 stepping. The parts that will be made on the K0 silicon are Core i3 models 530 (new sSPEC: SLBX7), 540 (new sSPEC: SLBTD) and Core i5 models 650 (new sSPEC: SLBTJ), 660/661 (SLBTK/SLBTB), 670 (SLBTL). Newer and upcoming models such as the i3-550, i3-560, i5-665K, and i5-680 are already being built on the K0 stepping die. Motherboards will require a BIOS update to support the new K0 stepping processors.

The K0 stepping change includes the following highlights:

• New S-spec and MM numbers for the converting products
• Extended CPUID will change from 0x00020652 to 0x00020655
• Host RevID will change from 0x12 to 0x18
• K0 stepping package is pin compatible with C2 stepping package
• Adds Processor Context ID (PCID) support

The revised older SKUs that are built on K0 stepping will be market-available by October 16.
