  1. Windows 10 Key doesn't work + Activate Windows Watermark stuck to corner of my screen


    I'm going absolutely nuts trying to solve this. Over the past week, I have had this watermark with the words "Activate Windows. Go to Settings to activate Windows" and it's driving me insane. It goes over all my games and makes me lose concentration. Weirdest part is, I've used this PC with Windows 10 for around 2 years and not once has this message appeared. It's not appeared due to any major changes to my settings and I've tried my hardest to make it disappear; best was 2 days before it reappeared.My product key apparently doesn't work, even after finding it using a program and re-entering i

  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.

  3. Activation of Windows 10 Pro doesn´t work

    Hallo, i can´t activate my windows 10 Pro (free upgrade from windows 7);

    Info: 0xC0EA000A

    Manual activation doesn´t work either.

    Important (i think): I had to re-install windows 10 (3 or even 4 times). because I had massive problems with "Start and Cortana Issues".

    I hope, I don´t have to search the old product key.

    PS. Yes, Windows 7 was genuine.

    Windows 10 Key doesn't work + Activate Windows Watermark stuck to corner of my screen

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?
