  1. Unable to Activate Windows 10 Home After Buying From Microsoft.com


    Hello,


    I bought Windows 10 Home directly from microsoft.com on December 17, 2020, and got a confirmation email.

    I have a Microsoft account and I bought it with my account. It's showing on my Order History that the purchase was completed.

    However, I have not received a product key via email or via viewing from my Microsoft account. When I linked my Microsoft account to my computer, it didn't automatically activate via Digital License, like I was told.

    I talked to customer support and was told that it may be a glitch. The following is what Sales did.

    1. Re-sent the confirmation email. Product key was not in the resent confirmation email.

    2. Refunded me the first purchase, and asked me to buy it again because there was an on-going issue. I bought it again. No product key again in the confirmation email.

    3. Talked to customer support again different agent who said to buy it again. I have paid for a second one, and my money is still pending on a refund.


    I talked to another customer support, who also suggested the same thing. I was escalated to tech support, who tried his best but couldn't activate my Windows still. He escalated me to another type of tech support who also couldn't help me activate my Windows.


    I already paid for this, twice. I just want to activate my Windows 10, whether it's a product key or digital license.

    :)

    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?

    From Why can't I activate Windows?

    If you upgraded to Windows 10 for free and ended up in a non-activated state, try following these steps:

    • Go to Start

      , then select Settings > Update & security > Activation.
    • Select Go to Store, and check to see if a valid license is available for your device. If a license isn't available, you'll need to buy Windows from the Store.

      Note
      • This only applies if you haven't made changes to the hardware for your device.

    or you could hack it with a crack but please note this is always risky and you don't know what's in the hack

    Microsoft Selects Dolby Audio for Windows 10

    it would've been great if microsoft added HEVC decoders, LAV filters along with other codecs with Windows 10, and developing WMP to be better than VLC, KMPlayer and such sorts of media players.

    Nevertheless, this is good step for microsoft, by far.
