    I bought Windows 8 and then Updated to 8.1. I used keyfinderthing to get my Key from Windows 8.1. That key is different then the key that was in the email after I bought Windows 8. Did the key change when I updated to 8.1?

    I never got the notification on the task bar to reserve a copy of Windows 10. I am a Windows Insider member.

    Thanks

  2. Adobe Flash Player

    Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately this did not help. I see no 'jigsaw puzzle-like" icon. The problem is occurring with only one game that I have been playing for ages and does not occur on other games from the same site. The message I'm getting
    is "you must have javascript and be using the latest version of Adobe Flash Player". Both are part of Windows 10 so no need to install or reinstall. But I did check to make sure that both are operating, following the onscreen prompts and in advanced settings
    Adobe Flash Player is checked as being on, but then I run the test and it says it is disabled. I'm more than a little confused.

  3. WHY THE HELL CAN'T I PLAY MICROSOFT SOLITAIRE COLLECTION WHEN I AM AT MY LAKE HOME???

    I think it may be the game and not the collection. Mine was working on Thursday afternoon but I haven't been able to get into a game since Thursday evening. It loads, I select the game and then it goes to a blank screen.

    Yes it is a different key for 8.1, you need to have done all the updates to get the notification.

    I have done all updates. There is one update that ends in 2664 that I do not have. Is this update for Windows 7 or Windows 8.1?

    Thanks
