    Windows activation pop-up on a home PC after upgrading to win 10 from win 7


    Hello everyone,
    Last night when playing with my gf I suddenly got an "Activate Windows" thing in the corner of my screen. Upon looking more into it it says that windows cannot be activated on this pc because they can't connect to the activation server of my organization. I was never in an organization, this was always a home pc that I've upgraded back in the day to Win10 from Win7, so I should have a digital license thing, but when I look at the activation tab it says that I have a product key and my Win10 is now an enterprise version? I haven't done any hardware changes in the past 2 years and just recently moved, so only thing that changed was an internet provider. If anyone has any Ideas of what this all means I beg you to help, as I struggle to understand as to why it would be the way it is. I'm more than happy to answer any questions.

    :)

    is hardware OK (Win 7) for upgrade to windows 10

    I think in one of the other PC with win 7 or win 8.1 I run media creators tools and in some step prompt/found graphics card not supported... for win 10. I didn't found alone reading specs of win 10, but the tool says me... after changed graphics card the tool said all OK and continued OK with upgrade... That I ask to reach this step in this current PC - win 7 - must be all OK for the upgrade? Or must continue to upgrade to show this?
    and got to point

    • UPGRADE this PC now
    • Create media(DVD, USB stick, ISO)
    is hardware OK (Win 7) for an upgrade to windows 10 for this PC???

    I have given you the advice of what to do about IF you can get 10 for free and about checking the compatibility.

    There is no point in you asking the same questions over and over.

    I have nothing further to add.

    What you do now is up to you.
