    Problems activating windows 10


    My windows does not seem to be activated. So I get my key from command prompt, paste the key into settings and press activate.


    It then comes up with the message:


    Unable to activate windows.


    Something interrupted our troubleshooting. Make sure that you are connected to the internet, wait a few minutes and try again. (0x80070002)


    I am connected to the internet, so something must be wrong. I go to the troubleshooter, and it only gives me the option to upgrade my edition of windows (I am on Windows 10 Home). I then click that and press start, it then comes up with the exact same message:


    Unable to activate windows.


    Something interrupted our troubleshooting. Make sure that you are connected to the internet, wait a few minutes and try again. (0x80070002).


    I am on a Dell Inspiron 7559 and the warranty has expired.


    If someone can please help that would be appreciated.

    :)

    Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

    How long did you wait for activation?
    When I re-installed with a fresh install... it took a few hours to sync and activate.
    However, it did, finally, activate.

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
    I won't buy a key, stupid.

    I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

    When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
    is that causing the problem?

    Problems activating windows 10

    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
