  2. This build of Windows will expire soon.

    I recently replaced my Motherboard and afterward I started getting the error:

    This build of Windows will expire soon

    Your build of Windows will expire on 5/15/2017. If it expires, your PC will restart every few hours. Go online for more information.

    I click more information and it doesn't give me anything helpful.

    Build 16176.rs_prerelease.170410-1642

    Activation Screen:

    Windows

    Edition Windows 10 Pro

    Activation Windows is activated with a digital license linked to your Microsoft account.

    I have run Windows Update several times but this error will not go away. I don't feel like having my computer constantly restarting on me so if anyone has any words of wisdom I'd be most appreciative.

  3. This build of Windows will expire soon.

    Looks like one of Microsoft's early fast insider build of Redstone 3 had very short life attached. Latest fast build is 16193 and there is ISO file from Microsoft available at:

    Download Windows 10 Insider Preview ISO

    I would use it to get up to date.

    I suggest clean install with ISO file or you could download to pc & use Mount feature to update.

    What build is installed?

    One way to find out is to run Winver.

    Did you download a fresh Windows 10 USB flash drive or DVD and install the newest version? As @bobkn is eluding to it sounds like you installed an old, out-of-date insider build of Windows 10. You can go here to download and update to the newest, released version:
    Download Windows 10

    Flyboy to Swabby---Excuse me Commander but the link you sent directed me to "Windows Media Creation Tool". I am a little inexperienced with this tool, but, will that also download Windows 10 Home? The directions also mention a license. Would that be my Windows account? I thank both you and bobkn for your help. I am at a loss because I am in Florida and my daughter who has the laptop is in school in New York. She is mailing me the pc today. So, knowing exactly what version is on the pc presently is a little tough.
    Commander "Fair Winds and Following Seas." and bobkn "thanks"

    I got the Media Creation Tool a week ago and used it to download the .iso file which I used to burn the DVD. It gave me Version 1607 Build 14393.447. After doing a clean install for a client I then was able to update to build 14393.1066, the most current on my computers.
