Windows 10: I (still) have problems with activating my Windows 10 Home

Hi. I made a post about this recently (which was ignored) and I'm trying it again. I had an Athlon X2 desktop with windows 10 home installed. I laso have an A8JS laptop. I decided I want to use that laptop and so I unistalled windows from the Athlon pc and removed it from my MS account. I went ahead and installed windows 10 home on the A8JS, but when I got to the activation menu later on, I was greeted with the 0xC004F213 error. I somehow fixed it, but then I got the FABBA error. I tought myself 'hm, maybe they need time to register that I removed win10 from the Athlon pc, or maybe something went wrong during the installation' so I reinstalled windows. Now, I'm stuck again on the first error and when I press troubleshoot>I recently changed hardware, then it loads into my MS account saying I have no devices that I could change from. I know that I have (or at least had) that license linked to my MS account. Is it gone? WDID? I can't speak with a support via phone, is there other way to contact them?

Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

How long did you wait for activation?
When I re-installed with a fresh install... it took a few hours to sync and activate.
However, it did, finally, activate.

 

DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
I won't buy a key, stupid.

I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
is that causing the problem?

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
