Windows 10: Latest Windows 10 (1803) has deactivated my windows 10

I am on my third version of W10 Pro (1803) upgraded free years ago from windows 8.1 pro. Today assuming after doing windows update my PC says its now not activated. Going to activation screen and reentering my key (from SIW) it says I havent got a digital license and would I like to buy one from the windows store. And its seems to have changed from win10pro to win 10 enterprise for some strange reason because I also tried the default key which showed up in SIW. Is this a microsoft server issue and should I just leave it a few days. Of course phoning the microsoft 0344 number you just get options that are not relevant and cannot find a person! Obviously putting my win 8.1 pro key in does not work. Any ideas or do I have to reimage!

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

Windows 10 Tweaks

As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

• Launch the Store from your Start menu.
• Click the user icon next to the search box.
• Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
• Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
• When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”
