    How can I tell if I just bought a valid license or got scammed?


    I just bought a Windows 10 Pro license online to upgrade my Windows 10 Home machine, but I got 0xc004f050 when I use it. How can I tell if I just got scammed, or it's just some other bugs or error?

    :)

    Microsoft License Scam??

    Yes that's definitely a scam.

    Windows will never call you and warn you about your license expiring.

    I suggest blocking the number immediately that calls you.

    unable to validate license-15

    Hello,

    I started using Nokia maps and i received the following error when trying to buy navigation maps:

    unable to validate license-15

    This was shown after the list of maps where retrieved, after the Update yes/no screen. Also in some cases after this step the application closes completely.

    Did someone have this problems ?

    I'm using a Nokia E50.

    How can I tell if I just bought a valid license or got scammed?

    LIcense code not valid!

    Due to problems with my old N82, I bought a new N82 and are now trying to use MAPS, but whenI try to enter the license code, I get the message "This license code is not valid".

    To get to this message was a hazzle, but finally I got there, connected to the server and god the "Update completed" info, whereafter it comes to a page where I can buy Licenses or enter license codes - it's here I enter my PAID FOR license code, which is
    valid until spetember 2009, and then get this "not valid" reply.



    Doe's anyone know what the problem is and how to solve it?
