Activate Failed after rebuild
I just completed rebuilding my desktop with Windows 10 Pro which I have a license and key. I got the key before my rebuild using some code at the command prompt. After reinstalling Windows 10 Pro on my new system Activation failed stating my Key wasn't valid. I purchased the software years ago (Windows 8) and upgraded to Windows 10 Pro. There use to be a phone activation, I found a number to Microsoft, but it was for XP.
This is a real bummer. Does anyone have any ideas.
If I have to buy an new license where can I get the best price for a real version of the software.
I rather contact Microsoft and try to get some help.
Thanks,
John
