    Keep having to reactivate windows 10


    I am getting more than a little annoyed with this now.

    Every day I get home from work and my windows 10 installation keeps prompting to activate it.

    So I end up using the troubleshooter which then "upgrades" and restarts windows and the problem is gone. Only to return from work the next day to the same kettle or crap situation all over again. Bear in mind this is a valid product key that is linked to my microsoft account. Its been working fine for a year now so why this all of a sudden?

    You would think with the amount of money they charge you for the product it would at least work properly.

    One day I will just put the machine through the wall.

    Can anyone sort this out for me or do I just continue to pull my hair out and curse at this defunct product?

    :)

    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
