Windows 10: windows 10 key

Hi

I have been having trouble with the blue screen and have tried many options including seeking professional support but all have failed.

then I tried to download and refresh my windows 10 / 2016 version after following Microsoft instructions.


The blue screen still occurs but not as frequent but now I have been asked to supply a valid software key my key isn't valid for some reason. Microsoft says it's not valid and now I have to repurchase new software.


I can't afford to as my software works perfectly fine.


I have forgotten my original password and account that I set up is there anyway and can validate my current software? I have until March 31 to activate!


Regards

Steve

windows 10 key

Thanks but I don't want to do any decrypting. I want to download a Win 10 ISO from Microsoft and install it using my Win 8 key. No other steps required. Is that possible?

 

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.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

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
