  1. Unable to reactivate Windows 10


    Hello,


    After installing a new motherboard, cpu, and memory in my computer, Windows is suddenly no longer considered to be activated.


    I tried going through the activation troubleshooter and designating that there were significant hardware changes, yet it was unable to reactivate Windows.


    I've been running this version of Windows 10 for quite a while now, and I think I got the free upgrade from Windows 8 before that.

    Is there a way I can get Windows to reactivate?


    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    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

    Unable to reactivate Windows 10

    Windows 10 Hardware change. Unable to reactivate windows.

    Hello,

    I Just upgraded my computer from a Intel I7 8700k to a Amd Ryzen 9 3900X, I am unable to reactivate my windows, even via the troubleshooter.

    I click troubleshoot -> Click "I changed hardware on this device recently" -> The "Reactivate Windows 10" page shows up with my device listed. -> I click the check box and hit activate. -> I get a message saying " Unable to activate Windows. "We can't
    reactivate Windows on this device. Try again later."

    I switched from a Asus Prime Z390-A motherboard to a Asus X570-E motherboard also.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    -Frank.
