Hi All,
I recently (ie about a week ago) upgraded my PC from windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 10, where I used a windows software tool to conduct the upgrade. At no point did the tool request any activation or even require that I input my product code. The update went great, no problems.
The problem I have now is only recently after completing the upgrade ( and also a few days after the update was already complete) did I see a notification saying that I need to activate my windows. The product key I have ( from a sticker on the PC) is for windows 8.1 Pro. When I run the trouble shooting tool or even if I enter the product key manually it says the product code is not valid with error code 0x803FA067
I was really under the impression that considering the tool completed the upgrade, that this would be for free and I wouldn't have any activation issues however now it appears as though I need to by a license which I can't afford. Do I need to downgrade back to windows 8.1 or is there someone I can speak to activate /upgrade my current license?
