  1. Windows Home activation


    I bought a computer last summer with Windows 10 Home. I decided to bring this computer to work and upgrade to Windows 10 Pro. After upgrading, I realized that I was signed in with my personal Microsoft Account and needed to change everything to my business Microsoft Account. I contacted Microsoft and they refunded my purchase. I created the new account on the PC, but now my version of windows is not activated. I thought the computer would revert back to Windows 10 Home, but I guess I was naive. How do I correct this so I can re-purchase Windows 10 Pro as an upgrade and not as a new installation?

    :)

  3. 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.
