  2. Nokia 5800, 75MB memory in use, 11 MB free, 41 MB 'Other Files', 32 MB SIS Applications

    Thanks for the suggestions, Hazey. It has helped a bit, but not a huge amount. I've got it down to 70 MB in use, 17 MB free. The only one of your suggestions that I haven't followed was the one about switching the messaging folders from C: to E:. When
    I tried switching, I just lost everything in my message folders on C:. Is there any way of copying these messages over?

    I still have the 36 MB 'other files' listed when I check the memory details, which is really bugging me.

    Windows 10 Pro Deactivated Because MB Failed?

    My MB fried last month and I replaced it a couple of days ago. Windows 10 Pro is now deactivated. I did all the steps online and used the troubleshooter repeatedly to no avail. Online chat was useless as they wanted me to dig up a receipt for my OS
    from years ago as this was an upgrade from 7 Pro.

    Based on feedback here and elsewhere I have called them but the person who I talked to said my MB owned the OS, not me. Because the MB died I need to pony up another $200 even though my system and 5 others I own are recognized on my Microsoft account
    as being good to go a month ago.

    Has anyone else dealt with this nonsense recently? My MB did not waltz down to the store and buy the OS. I bought it. A hardware failure should not require me to buy another OS that was fine 30 days ago. Their insistence that I show a receipt from a decade
    ago for Windows 7 Pro is ludicrous.

    The fact the system is recognized on my Microsoft account should be enough. Now it sees two systems with the same name but neither has an official OS all because of a MB change. I have 5 systems and and each one has a real OS not to mention the serious
    coin spent on MS Office!

    I was told to call back in an hour if I want to talk to a supervisor and in 20 minutes I will do just that. I am always polite but can see how someone could be easily frustrated with the experience. I will post back with the results from my conversation
    with the supervisor in a bit.
