    Windows 10 Activation requirement


    I found a lot about this online but here is a legal interpretation only: Is it legal that I use Windows 10 without activating it? - Law Stack Exchange although it does not specify the number of days without activation.

    This is something Microsoft should change, like having a fixed trial period for Windows 10 of 90-180 days or so, because it would be much clearer for all of us.

    Some PM's are not working...

    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

    Windows 10 Activation requirement

    Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

    This kinda sucks. However, if one is upgrading from a retail W7/8, then it should activate on different hardware, with possible phone activation required if it's been over 120 days or whatever the timeout period is now since the last activation. Remember to erase the copy on the old hardware, of course.

    Windows 11 Activation Requirement: The upgrade from Windows 10 to 11 is advertised as a free upgrade that does not need any product key. I have recently upgraded to Windows 11 yet it requires a Product Key to activate. Is the installation of the Windows 11 OS the free part or am I doing something wrong?...
