  1. Windows deactivated randomly and is now entirely useless


    I randomly began seeing the Activate Windows watermark on my desktop - potentially after a routine update but I do not know for sure. Ever since then, I haven't been able to use windows at all. It takes exponentially longer to even sign in with my pin. Once I finally do get in to my desktop, nothing I click on works. This includes the search bar, the notification center, or the windows start menu. I have no clue where to go from here.

    :)

  3. Windows 10 freezes randomly


    I had already tried turning off fast startup, to no avail.
    Will look at the list you provided, thanks. Hard to do when computer freezes on the Windows loading screen though. *Biggrin
    I had tried that as well... no result.

    Windows 10 freezes randomly

    Hi,

    To better assist you regarding Windows 10 which freezes randomly, please provide the following:

    • Which is the last Windows update build you've applied to the computer?
    • Are there any third party applications that are currently installed?
    Furthermore, we suggest that you do a BIOS update to your computer. Here are the steps:

    • Check the motherboard manufacturer's website to find the specific model of your motherboard.
    • Go to the computer manufacturer's website.
    • Look for the computer model that you're using.
    • You should find any available BIOS update.

    Let us know how it goes.
