  1. Windows 10 possibly installed the wrong version of Windows after full reset?


    Hi, so, I had been using windows 10 since 2015, using that free upgrade from windows 7 and since then I hadn't reset'd my pc. Yesterday I decided it was finally time to fully reset my pc back to factory settings deleting every file in the process. Once done I tried re-activating windows using my Microsoft account but told me I had no keys to re-activate the license. I had then noticed that I actually have Windows 10 Enterprise installed but I only have a Windows 10 pro license on my account. Was there a upgrade that happened for users who had pro installed? Why did Windows 10 install Enterprise and not windows 10 Pro which is what I have on my account. If there was an free upgrade for pro users why was my account info not updated?

    :)

    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

    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.
