What will happen on Jan 20, 2016?


Strollin: I understand your suggestion, but that means I'll have to re-install all my sofftware etc. again. This is not an enticing thought at all.

LCDR: I tried the old activation code I used before - it is the same on you posted.

I tried the steps listed at the WinAero site. Last one failed because it said the server could not be located. But I did get the Jan 20, 2016 date back. So that's something.

Note: The steps apply for Windows 10 as well.

Note 2: After the troubleshooting is done make sure to refer the section
" How to reset the computer to start normally after clean boot troubleshooting" from the Clean boot article.



Method 3: Run the DISM Tool.

If the issue persists, I suggest you to run the DISM tool to check the system health and will try to restore the files.

• 
  Click on 'Start'.
  
• 
  Enter 'Command prompt' in the Search box.
  
• 
  In the list of results, swipe down on or right-click Command prompt, and then tap or click
  'Run as administrator'.
  
• 
  In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type the following commands. Press the
  Enter key after each command:
  

• 
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
  

To close the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type Exit, and then press Enter.

Note: The tool might take 15-20 minutes to finish running, so please do not cancel it.

Try the above steps and let us know the status of the issue for further assistance. Feel free to contact us, we will be glad to help you.
