    Windows Process Activation Error 15


    I am running windows 10 home 64 bit

    As of this morning my computer was great. Got on this evening, no updates in between, hoped on World of Warcraft classic run 10 steps and computer crashed, no error message or anything just rebooted. Tried again same thing, went to event viewer and I am seeing several errors:

    The WAS service terminated with the following error:
    The system cannot find the drive specified.

    The NetMsmqActivator service depends on the WAS service which failed to start because of the following error:
    The system cannot find the drive specified.

    The NetPipeActivator service depends on the WAS service which failed to start because of the following error:
    The system cannot find the drive specified.

    All seemed to be based around the WAS. I am not a huge techy but can do some research. I came across a couple of fixes but they didn't seem to work. When I go to services and try and start the WAS manually I get error 15: the system cannot find the drive specified.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Windows 10 will not activate Error code 0x803F7001


    Possibly there can be the problem with Microsoft activation Server, so your Windows 10 is not activated. In this scenario, you need to wait and verify if it is the issue from Microsoft’s side. But if you are getting error code 0x803f7001, you can also try these steps:

    1. Open Settings app. Then go to Update and security > Activation screen > Change product.
    2. Type your Windows edition product key and click Next.
    3. You’ll get We couldn’t activate Windows error message.
    4. Retry steps 1-3 then type your 25-characters unique product key.
    5. Wait for the process to complete, Windows 10 is activated.
    Hope something helps this problem
