BIOS Update Causes Win 10 Reactivation

Just completed new build with ASUS H170 Pro-Gaming motherboard (Rev. 1.03). I downloaded retail version of Win 10 and then upgraded Win10 to version 1151 (Nov. update). Everything is working so I went to ASUS

website to update the ASUS BIOS and drivers and before downloading anything I read that some people were having issues with Win 10 requiring reactivation after they updated their motherboard's BIOS.

Sounds like Win 10 views a BIOS update as a different computer instead of just an update to the existing motherboard's BIOS and requires reactivation. Anyone know if this is a universal issue, or just related to specific motherboards and how to get it resolved?
Appreciate input.

 

access BIOS settings in Win 10

I have an 8-year old computer running Win 10. I need to access the BIOS settings. It used to be the holding down the F2 key during startup would bring up the BIOS screen in Windows computers. But this no longer works. A web article listed a complicated
series of steps leading to a reboot . . . but still no access to BIOS. Any suggestions?
