Windows 10: How get my laptop to function at BASIC LEVEL

Windows deactivated randomly, and I began getting activation, activation troubleshooter, update and update troubleshooter error codes. I followed all of your instruction on every thread I could find. Ended up trying a restore keeping personal data. Didn’t solve the issue. Tried a full restore wiping all data. Didn’t solve the issue. Spent two separate days on the phone with tech support. This morning, we ran a fresh install and activated my windows. I set everything up. Did a clean shutdown, and went about my day. This evening I sat down to do a college assignment. My laptop wouldn’t boot. So

SOLVED: Laptop Touchpad fully functional, but not in Universal apps

OK - sorted it finally :

• in step one/two above you delete the existing Synaptics drivers then have to reboot
• unfortunately when the PC restarts it installs some generic touchpad drivers which have the basic functionality
• So although step4 (run setup) appears to work, it hasn't actually done anything as the generic drivers are already there

So what you have to do is this...

• In device manager, select the mouse device and click update drivers.
• Then select Browse My Computer > Let me pick from a list > Have disk button, and select the folder with the new Synaptics drivers (I'm running 32-bit windows so selected ..\WinWDF\x86).
• The green progress bar shows the drivers are loading, then when it's all done you now have the new functionality installed - RESULT!!!
