Several Kernel Errors within a day?

There is no reason why Windows would ask for a key, in most cases a digital entitlement is registered on the servers of Microsoft which registers the hardware you're using. This makes that you could install Windows 10 infinitely without problems for activation, because when Windows checks the servers for activation it sees the digital entitlement. Only if you change the motherboard you would have to get a new key as that is seen as a new system.

I'm wondering where that question came from :)

I was thinking of a factory reset. Just for a clean boot I go into MSconfig right? No need for safe mode while I do the clean boot I assume

A reminder of how to perform a clean boot :)

I clean booted the system and now I'll see what happens. I'll keep you informed!

Alright this just happened. I even was in a clean boot.. Attachment 81320

Please run the DM Log Collector again

Here you go!

Could you run MemTest86+ again please, if it doesn't find any problems it is a driver issue (again) and I think that we then might go into a loop for catching drivers and I would like to prevent that with suggesting a clean installation.

Diagnostic Test

 RAM TEST

Run MemTest86+ to analyse your RAM. MemTest86+ - Test RAM - Windows 10 Forums

   Note

MemTest86+ needs to be run for at least 8 complete passes for conclusive results. Set it running before you go to bed and leave it overnight. We're looking for zero errors here. Even a single error will indicate RAM failure.

Make a photo of the result and post it.

Addition:
If errors show up you can stop the test, remove all sticks but 1 and test this single stick in each slot for 8 passes or until errors show, switch sticks and repeat.
If errors show up and you see them a lot later, no problem, the errors don't affect the test.

Yeah, I got nothing. Even when swapping sticks like last time.. How we approaching this clean install? I've never done one..

I would like you to perform a proper one, but that will erase everything on your hard drive so I recommend to backup all data you do NOT want to loose to an external HDD.

Just a FYI in case you don't know, a clean install won't cause any problem with activation :)

I have an empty one around. Looks like I'll have to back up my goodies. It may take some time though.. Also thanks for clarifying the activation! It was a concern of mine.
