Why no request for an activation code
After two installations in two weeks both times I have booted from a Windows 10 Pro DVD only to find that not only does it not ask for an activation code first but has caused me to make tow VERY long phone calls to Microsoft to get it put right that is that apparently any installation media even labelled as Pro will default to the Home version.
Does anyone know what the reason for this is for ??
Why I want to know is that if I have to reinstall yet again for any reason is there any way around this problem ie the device asking for an activation code on inserting the DVD or stick?? avoiding the wretched phone call to Microsoft support to correct the installation from Home to Pro??
