  1. Updraded to Windows 10 Pro -- now my windows isn't activated


    Hi,


    I'm getting an activation error, 0xC004F213. It says that no product key is on my device. This happened about 1 day after I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro and turned on Bitlocker encryption.


    I am using an Asus UX305F, which came with Windows 8 installed. I upgraded to Windows 10 home for free during the period when upgrades were free. My windows was always activated during this time and I logged in using a microsoft account every time I used my computer.


    I've tried the activation troubleshooter to no effect. I've tried looking for my product key (using suggested commands and programs), and have found one, but entering it doesn't fix the problem. My Microsoft account has a record of my purchase of the Pro upgrade, but it seems to have conveniently forgotten that I ever owned Windows 10 home.


    Is this something I need to worry about?


    Thanks,


    Steve

    :)

    Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

    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.

    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.
