  1. Does Windows Activation uninstall when completely resetting your computer?


    Windows 10 had been genuinely installed onto a computer and I had completely reset my computer, deleting all files and re-installing Windows in the process. However, it now says that Windows is not activated with the following message: "Windows reported that no product key was found on your device. Error code 0xC004F213." I only have a copy of the product ID which I found out is different to the product key; having only 20 inputs rather than 25 and was wondering if I had to repurchase Windows 10 or whether I could get some support and get it reactivated. Thank you in advance,Jae

    :)

  2. Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.

    Does Windows Activation uninstall when completely resetting your computer?

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Does Windows Activation uninstall when completely resetting your computer? :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
