Windows 10: Microsoft licence renewal

When I start up my laptop, I get the announcement that my microsoft license will expire soon. Go to settings, etc.

I have no idea how to renew it.

I lived unto recently in Uruguay where I bought this laptop and had all the software put on overthere.

I cannot go back to the shop, as I live now in The Netherlands.

So, how do I get a new license?

How to verify that my Windows 10 licence is associated with my Hotmail/Microsoft account

Do those steps:

• Use the keyboard shortcut Windows-I to open the Settings application.
  
• Select Update & Security.
  
• Select Activation
  

Here you see the current status. If the account has no licence you can click on Add an account, enter your account data and the account gets the license added.

You can see this in the next step in the same dialog:

 

LICENCE RENEWAL

Hello all

I used to have a drive Europe licence for my Nokia 6220 classic and it expired some time ago.

I am trying to re-buy the licence without success.I am UK based.

I have searched for this specific problem without success.

If I launce maps then go to my licences I have the option to update.

I try to connect then it comes back with......Operation failed.Please try again later.

I have had this same problem over the past couple of months.



Does anybody know of an option to purchase this licence via my laptop online?

Once I am able to purchase the licence and get the licence code then I will try inputting the code into the "insert licence code"option on my phone.

Many thanks.
