Activation windows 10 pro insider build 10162. I have some questions
Hello guys. I will try to be direct. The notebook which i installed Windows 10 TP was running Windows 8.1 and i installed the HOME build 10130, over the 8.1 version. But i had some problems with Windows update and boot, so i did a clean install of Windows 10 preview build 10162, but in the PRO version(I thought it would be home version, but didn't happened). Ok, before that, i picked up the product key of the OEM version(8.1) and now, with build 10162, Windows its not activated. I used the key given by Microsoft, but it simply doesnt work. Appears a message that the activation server blocked the key. I just received the build 10240 by windows update, and i'm downloading now, but here's the question: To activate Windows properly, i have to install 8.1 again, put the key and install Windows 10 oficial? The OEM product key has a lifetime if not in use? I can do something different to activate it? I will be grateful if someone give me a good answer :)
