    Windows 10 keeps deactivating


    I upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10 Home several years ago using the free upgrade offer that was available at the time. It's been fine for years but over the last couple of months it keeps deactivating at random times. I can always resolve it by going to Activation>Troubleshoot and after a few seconds it activates

    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
