    Windows 10 will not activate Error code 0x803F7001


    Possibly there can be the problem with Microsoft activation Server, so your Windows 10 is not activated. In this scenario, you need to wait and verify if it is the issue from Microsoft’s side. But if you are getting error code 0x803f7001, you can also try these steps:

    1. Open Settings app. Then go to Update and security > Activation screen > Change product.
    2. Type your Windows edition product key and click Next.
    3. You’ll get We couldn’t activate Windows error message.
    4. Retry steps 1-3 then type your 25-characters unique product key.
    5. Wait for the process to complete, Windows 10 is activated.
    Hope something helps this problem

    WTF! Vista update error code 80070002

    Can you please tell me the error code you receive when you get the update failed message? If it is 80070002 or anything like that, follow these steps:



    Well, first of all let me just say that I am not a computer professional. However, I have had the same problem with my 32-Bit Windows Vista Home Premium (making Microsoft's statement null and void) and I have solved it! Here are the step by step instructions:



    1) Go to the Start Menu.

    2) Click on Computer.

    3) Open up the drive where windows is installed (usually your C drive).

    4) Open the Windows Folder.

    5) Scroll down a bit and locate the SoftwareDistribution folder (exactly like that).

    6) Open the Download folder.

    7) Open the Install folder.

    8) There sould only be one file there. Right click on it and select "Run as Administrator".

    9) After entering an Administrator password, run the installation, using the default values and clicking yes at the license.

    10) After the installation is complete (shouldn't take more than a few minutes), restart your computer (as an added precaution, though not necessary).

    11) After the computer restarts again, run Windows Update again. It should run as normal. All fixed!

    I apologize for Microsoft's ineptitude.


    This worked for me guys...
