    Has Microsoft removed anyone else's digital license recently?


    After running Windows 10 Pro on the same PC for the past 7 years, MS removed my digital license. All was working fine until yesterday. I spoke with their offshore "activation team" and their suggestion was that I purchase a new license. Really? You want me to buy something that I already paid for?

If this is happening to me, then I wonder how many others may be impacted as well. I suppose the next step would be to speak with attorney and see i

    ...

    you get the idea. ( too lazy to put it in a for loop and test it.

    or just open regedit and remove all the fileX from that key.
