    Well, as long as it stays activated, I'm going to leave it as it is, but if it asks me again, i'll wipe the drive and start over.

    It doesn't sound like this to me, it sounds like Tews was prompted to activate Windows 10 TP but the key didn't work so simply asked if anyone else has seen this issue.
