  1. Windows 10 activation key help


    So I just built a new pc and it's time to activate windows. Originally I didn't want to pay to activate windows so I used this website: https://activatewindows7.com/free-windows-10-product-key-2020-100-working/ . It worked and windows was activated, but it said "windows is activated with a digital license using your organizations". After some time I decided to just buy a windows 10 key because I was kind of sketched out. I went into the settings and changed the product key and everything seems to be fine. My question is will there be any problems since I used the other key using "slmgr /skms kms8.msguides.com” in my command prompt and connected to a kms server? Also, will using the method on that site allow someone to spy on me?

  2. Installing Windows 10 using Windows 7 key

    Nope, you need to install Windows 10 first and make sure the Windows 7 key is transferred to your Windows account after you've installed Windows 10 (not quite sure how that works). I missed the last step and I could not activate Windows 10 after a re-install... Microsoft seem to have done everything they can to make it a PITA. Also, it's technically too late to do this now anyhow, as the upgrade offer has expired. But KMSPico works quite well...

    As for getting rid of Windows, delete the Windows folder.

    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 http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/why-activate-windows-10

    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
