    Unable to activate Windows after Windows 10 Pro update


    I have been running Windows Home 10 on my desktop for some time now, I have all of the latest updates. I downloaded and installed the Windows 10 Pro update two days ago from the Microsoft store, and now I have received a message that I need to activate windows, and so far, I have been unable to do that using the usual tools. I get an error code and message telling me that there is a problem communicating with Microsoft, etc. I do not have any of the codes, numbers, etc, I am being asked to enter, not even the Pro install came with that, just an order number. Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    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.

    I bought Windows 7 Pro OEM key from G2Play.net for 12€ to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro - worked like a charm but be advised if you buy a OEM key you can not download the Win 7 iso from microsoft and have to get it elsewhere.

    Unable to activate Windows after Windows 10 Pro update

    Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

    Hi!

    I signed up in the windows insider program and got windows 10 free - the windows 10 insider preview updated to windows 10 pro.
    Today i got another SSD and did a raid 0 on my system forcing me to do a clean install of windows but now it wont activate anymore.
    Signing in with my microsoft account that was linked to the insider program didnt help.
    Maybe i got this problem since i quit the insider program for several days and signed up again after i found out that my win 10 wont activate anymore.
    Any ideas how to fix it?
