    Error Message: Failed to validate the product key

    I had already tried most of the suggestions on

    https://www.kapilarya.com/fix-windows-10-setup-...

    None of them worked.

    Thanks for the help.

  3. Windows 10 Setup has failed to validate the product key

    I'm running windows 10 pro.

    The update and security screen says Windows is activated but just to be sure I went through support and gave them my product ID and they then gave me a confirmation ID and activated windows. That all worked, but the windows 10 installer still says Windows
    10 Setup has failed to validate the product key.

    I downloaded the iso through the media creation tool, is there a different one I should be using or is something else the matter?

    Thanks

    Windows 10 upgrade error : Setup has failed to validate the product key

    Hi all,

    I have an official version of Windows 8 on my PC, which I successfully upgraded to Windows 8.1 Pro.

    Now, I want to upgrade it to Windows 10. I downloaded the .iso file and mounted the disk, and clicked on setup.exe.

    Now an error is thrown saying "Something happened", "Setup has failed to validate the product key".

    What am i supposed to do ?
