View 2 RepliesI upgraded to the latest build (10240) today but managed to enter the enterprise product key by mistake. Is there anyway to change back to pro without reinstalling? I've tried reverting to the previous build but it says the files have been deleted.

View 1 RepliesAt one point I had my system as not activated. I searched for a product key and accidentally selected the enterprise key. Now I have an enterprise edition and I am afraid I will not get the free upgrade by the end of the month!
How can I reverse this without having to go back to windows 7 and start all over?
How can I upgrade to Windows 8 Enterprise to Windows 10 ?
Is there a way to go from Windows 8 enterprise to windows 8 to upgrade to windows 10?
Since I dont have windows 8 im not eligible to download Windows 8 for free.
I Heard there was a way for Windows 8 Enterprise users to use Windows 10 for free but had to use all the beta updates.
On a computer that does not have an Internet connection, I installed Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview 10130.
Now, how do I switch to its Enterprise edition remembering that this computer does not have Internet?
Ever since I've updated to Windows 10 which I love dearly there is this nagging issue that I'm having. I own a low profile Graphics Card that I would love to install the drivers for but for some reason I'm getting this error when trying to install the drivers. "The graphics driver could not find compatible hardware." I have the GPU in my motherboard but it will not recognized the darn thing.
View 1 RepliesSo I've run into problem, my 'A' key isn't being recognized by windows, even using the on screen keyboard doesn't work, it works if I do Shift+A but not just A by itself, I haven't changed anything.
I've tried unplugging, restarting pc, uninstalling drivers/software And I've tried All the Win key + Alt etc combinations And still nothing.
I have been using Windows 10 without any problem, until I did a system restore. When the computer rebooted, it would not recognize my password, even though it was correct. I have changed my Microsoft Account password, but that didn't work. I have the local account and the Microsoft account on the computer. Neither one accepts the password. I am using Windows 10 on two other computers without any problem. getting the computer to recognize the password? I can't get past the login window to access anything.
View 1 RepliesHow did I miss this one? I tested Office for Android when there were only Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Then Outlook became available. To be fair, I got an invite, but hadn't paid attention, since I didn't expect more than the base apps in the new Preview.
Now it seems that the whole enchilada is available for Android phones. I'm going to jump off the ledge and guess it's also available for Android tablets, since I haven't read Ed Bott's article.
My laptop with Windows 10 isn't recognizing my cell via usb, where can I download the drivers for free?
View 1 RepliesI just downloaded the Microsoft authentication app that have the approve or deny button for two-step verification on android. However on windows mobile I only find the app that sends you the code. This is sad because the android app makes it so much faster than looking up code and typing it. I might be missing something in the store or is this the case of creating better apps for android and ios?
View 8 RepliesAfter Windows 10 Update to 1511,10586 , none of the wired, network computers/drives are visible in the "Net Work" window. The network has One other, wired, computer and WDMyCloud Drive that are no longer visible.
Using the "Run" option, with addresses, I can access any computer or shared drive. File copy etc between computers works fine.
WakeOnLan reports that it cannot find the host computer, but it wakes it up anyway.
I have entered the credentials in Credential Manager and updated the drivers for my Realtek Ethernet card. Network Diagnosis finds no problems.
The problem exist,after the update, on both wired computers. I have tried two previous existing administrative users and one administrative user added after the update.
Windows explorer will only let me see the image files on my phone. I can not see any of my audio files or anything else for that matter. It thinks it is only a camera.
View 1 RepliesI have once again run into a problem with W10, and it's getting very frustrating with all these errors and malfunctions that W10 has. The problem is that when I plug a USB-device in my computer, no sound is being played to signal that the USB-device has been recognized, and that really seems to be the case. I can't even use my mouse.
I believe the problem started after the latest update for Windows 10 which took place about one day ago. Otherwise what could cause this kind of error.
I have been also wondering if it is possible to downgrade my laptop back to Windows 8. Windows 10 is clearly a very unstable OS released in a hurry and I have encountered the most bizarre problems with it, including Sony Vegas Pro 13 not launching any more.
I cannot send files via bluetooth from my PC to same smartphone 4.N4.2 Samsung Note just cannot send files from my smartphone to my PC.

Not true, I went into the Control Panel and associated the Windows 10 Mail program as the default email program. Please see attached screen shots as verification/clarification. Is there something I am missing? I am using Windows 10 Pro.
Dell Inspiron 5000 series, brand new
Originally the DVD drive would not show at all in File Explorer, despite Device Manager recognising, drivers up to date, etc. Dell diagnostics reported various feedback ranging from perfectly ok (SupportAssist, on-line smart diagnostic quick test) to failing some tests (on-line optical drive tests) and requiring attention (sadly, the attention it suggested I use was a 'fix' tool on the Microsoft website that would not run on Windows 10 operating platform so I have not been able to persue further)
Things improved a little after downloading and installing all of the urgent and recommended Dell updates, plus installing all of the Windows updates. Now the laptop shows the drive in File Explorer, and occasionally media is recognised and even played. For example, inserting an audio CD into the drive immediately after booting up will run autoplay and the tracks are displayed as expected in File Explorer.
However, subsequent CDs (or any other media) are not recognised. The drive 'acts' like it should (led goes on, whirring sound made, etc) but nothing happens. File Explorer displays whatever the previous media contents were.
So for example, if I insert an audio CD with 10 tracks immediately after booting, the CD will autoplay and the 10 tracks will display in File Explorer. Everything seems fine. If I then eject this CD, and put in an audio CD with 5 tracks, File Explorer will continue to display the 10 tracks from the first CD. The new CD wont autoplay. Its basically not recognised.
This is quite frustrating because it means I have to reboot every time I want to change media.
I would like to transfer photos from my android phone to my windows 10. But when I do the original create date on the photo disappears. I need the date to remain on the photos for a legal situation.

View 1 RepliesI had windows 8.1 and already upgraded for free to windows 10 home. Now I want to do a clean install of windows 10 with a usb drive and their create media installer program. What I want to know is if I can possibly use the windows 10 home N version? I like the idea of not having the stuff I may not use if I go for 3rd party software for videos and the like. Will it work or will it not let me since I didn't have an "N" version of my windows 8.1?
View 1 RepliesI recently used a Windows 10 ISO image tool to store Windows 10 on a USB for later use. Then I found out that I had to buy a Windows 10 license for it to work and I bought one... an OEM version. This isn't a huge issue as I can buy an optical drive for 20 bucks and put it inside of the PC that I will work on but then if the OEM product key will work with the Windows that I have stored on the flash drive that would be great as I don't have to spend 20 dollars on an optical drive that I will never use since I download most (if not all) of my media online. Long story short I would like to use an OEM product key on a flash drive that has Windows 10 on it.

Just upgraded to Windows 10, and it only took 10 min! After looking at the features I saw cortana was disabled due to policy, but fixed that with language changes. After that I expected it to work, but no. It says "Cortana is not available for this version of Windows", yet my control panel says I have a 64bit Windows 10 Pro Operating system.
