How to activate WIn10 Build 10240 CLean Install
I installed Build 10240 on a brand new SSD drive with no problems. However, Windows rejects the the activation code I found on another post in this forum:
How to activate the latest Windows 10 build - Microsoft Community
That post says activation really isn't necessary, but in fact it is. So is there a way to activate a clean install of Build 10240?
I tried entering the code from my Win7 DVD, but (of course) that was rejected also.
Edit:
Well DARN!!! Windows says it is the 32-bit version -- so of course it is going to reject the 64-bit version activation codes. I don't know if I clicked on the wrong download or if it was just mis-labelled. Looks like I have to start over.
Oh well.
