    This....I feel bad for anyone that wiped their drives and clean installed from the getgo.

    That said, you can upgrade from activated 7/8 (not KMS) and then clean install.

    1. What are the new products keys for build 10240 to install?

    2. Does upgrade works from Windows 8.1 which is activated by KMS (Microsoft Toolkit)?

    1. No keys. If you don't upgrade from permanatly activated 7/8/activated previous Insider build, you won't be activated.
    2. No. But 10240 still uses KMS v6, so you can activate via KMS (for now).

    Apparently some 7 users using Daz's Loader are activated in 10. Dunno if that's changed.

    I installed it too and works fine but at the first I removed it everytime because on a previous Installation my Internet Connection was gone after update but now everything seems really god. Battery life is much better now on my spectre x360

    Thank you so much for answer. :)

    So, Microsoft Toolkit can activate them for now? Or Online KMS servers only?

    if that's the case why was I de-activated last night? I was activated all day, installed updates then I was de-activated, tried clean install, still not activated

    I upgraded from legit 8.1 > 10240, then did a clean install, was activated, not anymore

    This is weird seems all keys used to activate windows 10 are the same key i did a upgrade from 8.1 on my surface pro and the key matches the one used on my PC one is linked to a MS account the other isn't.

    Has anyone tried upgrading from Windows 8.1 Pro activated with WMC key? Did you stay activated?

    Has anyone found a fix for the "images in Photo Viewer are tinted yellow" bug yet? Sad it's made it into RTM.
