Windows 10 Activation related.

Someonewithadoubt · Jan 7, 2023

So basically I am getting one of the screens in settings which says that I have a windows 10 home digital license key while running windows 10 pro and that I have to downgrade to windows 10 home which I don't have any problem in doing and just recently reset my system so its completely new and has no data on it and can download windows 10 home on it using windows media creation tool. However the problem is that the activation key that I require is hard to find and since its a digital key I simply used the command prompt to get it but the last 5 digits of my key are different from the last 5 digits of the activation key that I am able to partially see in windows settings just under activation.

Your activiation key is stored in your Microsoft account and it will prompt you to select it when you install if you're logged in

Hello my name is zahir a independent advisor Yes, users can activate Windows 11 using a Windows 10 product key. If your system already has an assigned digital license for Windows 10, it should automatically activate. Kind regards Zahir

Thank you for the information.

No worries as for our last resort, the only best option is to reinstall your Windows:

Before you begin make sure you back up your data:

If you have personal data and files that you want to save, back them up to an external hard drive, USB thumb drive, SD card, or cloud location (such as OneDrive) before you begin to reinstall Windows 10.

Make sure your Windows 10 or 11 is activated

Windows 10 must be activated after it’s reinstalled. Usually, this happens automatically after you go online. For more info, see "Activating after reinstalling Windows 10" in Activate Windows.

Note: If Windows 10 was activated on your device after upgrading from Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, you have a digital license for Windows 10 that can automatically activate Windows 10 after you reinstall it.

Kindly take your time and navigate through this link to know the detailed process for a proper Windows reinstallation.

Hello MemMem,

Thanks, for bringing your question to the forums. There is one on the Xbox one and also on PC through the Xbox App.

As far as seeing all activity, you will only be able to view first what they set up for their friends to view and also only Xbox or Microsoft related items.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Brad
