  1. Windows Activation Question


    I purchased a mini PC with Wndows 10 Pro pre-installed. When troubleshooting Windows Activation, the software advises me there is a product key for Windows 10 Home onboard in the Registry?, and suggests I change the OS. Cursory research tells me that there is no way to downgrade, but rather a clean install would be required, however I have no copy of Windows 10 Home to install from. What is the solution to this issue? Or perhaps I don't need to do anything: the sole intended purpose for the mini PC is to stream video from a separate cable TV account, which can push the stream through a browser, to my HDTV, which, after I set it up, is working just fine. Am I okay just leaving the system as is without Activation?

    :)

    Taskbar bug: switching to another window -will not appear at the front


    Follow either of these steps to fix the issue with the Active window hiding behind.

    Method 1:
    I suggest you to disable window by hovering over it with the mouse and check if it helps. To do so I suggest you to try the below given steps and check if it helps:

    1. Press Windows key + X key and click on Control Panel.
    2. Select or click Ease of Access.
    3. Click or tap onEase of Access Centre.
    4. Click on Make the Mouse Easier to Use was uncheck Activate Window by hovering over it with the mouse.
    5. Check if issue is resolved.
    Method 2:
    I would suggest you to completely uninstall the touchpad driver and reinstall it. Kindly follow the below given steps.

    1. Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Device Manager”.
    2. In the list of devices, you should see the touchpad drivers.
    3. Right click on the device and then select "Uninstall".
    4. In the uninstall dialog, make sure you select the option to delete the driver package from the system. This causes the driver package installed earlier to be deleted.
    5. In the Action menu of Device manager, select “Scan for Hardware changes” option. This will cause the device driver to be reinstalled. Once the driver is installed, close all windows and restart the computer.
