Hi @Load, welcome to the forums! *Smile

If you don't have the 8.1 product key, you're going to have to fully perform the upgrade.

 

what do you mean by fully perform? i have skip the activation part so my windows 10 copy isn't yet activated *Smile

 

If you need to find your key, try looking at this. It should help you.

Showkey - Windows 10 Forums

 

Are you sure you upgraded to the same edition? If your Windows 8.1 was a single language version, and you updated with a multiple language version, then it won't activate without a new key. Same if you went from home to pro, or vice versa.

 

Also N EU version or normal version as well.

 

and @Load, if you click on the product keys in the result windows to blank them out, and then post the results here we can probably tell you what is wrong.

 

Sounds like a version miss match. As NavyLCDR said, a showkey screen shot should help us sort it out. Don't forget to blank them out, we only need to see the last 5 digits.

 

When I upgrade to windows 10 from 8.1 in my new laptop it lags so I clean install it however it is not activated yet after clean installing it, I've tried softwares that can see product key but all it gives nothing, I mean blank. Probably it was been deleted after I format and deleted all the partition of my HDD. So yes, can I still get the update? or not?

 

Probably, but it won't activate either. We gave you the suggestion of what you need to do to help us diagnose your problem. Post the screenshot of showkey results so we can further diagnose what happened.

 

it gave me this one *Smile sorry for late reply

 

And that is your problem. Your computer originally had Windows 8 SINGLE LANGUAGE edition on it which upgraded to Windows 10 Single Language. You installed Windows 10 regular. You need to download Windows 10 Single Language edition and install that.





You want the bottom choice.

Hi navy thank you for your support, one last question, can I directly change my system from windows 10 home to home single language? i have bad connection of internet so it would take time to down the windows 10 home single language. Also the down fails a lot.
