    New Laptop has invalid Windows 10 pre-installed


    Last night i spent 2 hours with a Microsoft tech trying to resolve being unable to activate my Windows 10 that came preinstalled on a brand new laptop.


    In the end, activation failed and the tech told me i had a pirated copy of Windows when he checked the product id.


    Annoyed is an understatement.


    The laptop is this one:


    YEPO 737A Laptop 13.3 inch Ultrabook Laptops IPS Intel Celeron J3455 Notebook Computer With 6GB RAM 256GB SSD

    https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/b7kToXMk


    Sold by the 'official Yepo store' on AliExpress.


    I raised it with Yepo who directed me to download a zip file that contains a batchfile that my Bitdefender spat the dummy at and quarantined.


    I am insisting on a new product key from Yepo.


    Will give them a couple of days before raising a dispute with AliExpress.


    Anyone else had an experience like this or have any advice?

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
