    Windows 10 Activation issue


    Hi,I was recently forced to upgrade my windows 8.1 to a windows 10, Home edition, on a fairly old, but very high spec. laptop, i.e. quad core 1.8 GHz, 16 GB RAM & 2 TB hard drive. I used the upgrade option from Microsoft website: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10Now on the bottom right corner says, I have to activate the windows.... else I cannot personalize the system. I wanted to upgrade to a Windows 11, but the CPU cannot handle Windows 11.The laptop is in a good shape & I still would like to get 2 more years out of it. The end of support date for Window
