Initially, Microsoft says that applies to Windows 10 Home edition only. I am surprised to see Windows 10 professional is included in your post. I'd be interested to see the source of your statement.
I'm sure it's not as simple as that. Remember, the old activation still required entering a key and having the system modify the registry. I have a hunch that these online activations are also modifying the registry and/or modifying another file besides the tokens
Hello guys, I installed the Pro build as clean install,with no key. I'm unable to activate with the latest MTK (2.5.3). KMS installed and when i click on "activate", it's just display : ---Processing-------------------------- ---------------------------------------- If i click on "Ez Activator" : ---------------------------------------- Installing Any Matching Volume Keys. ---------------------------------------- Attempting To Activate Microsoft Windows It loop without change... Any ideas please ? Thanks
Try it yourself, go install 10 Pro and you'll se - updates are either automatic or disabled. I think it doesn't work, I have 4 installed updates and that troubleshooter can't see them.
No. They said that Insiders would be first to get the GA on the 29th and that everyone else would get it in waves after that.
They have been saying that since last October, that's not new. They said it would be automatic for everybody but enterprise and VL or maybe it was just enterprise.
I just talked with Microsoft Answertech and a technician says me: "Once you upgrade to the Pro version, you can switch to manual the installation process of the updates"
I've read all of this thread and noone has mentioned this, so: Upgraded to 10240 pro from genuine 8.1 pro key and it activated, reinstalled 8.1 on a different machine with the same key and went through phone activation successfully. Windows 10 online and still active too a day later. This would suggest the original key isn't "consumed" or blacklisted by the upgrade process immediately although it may do so after the 30 day roll-back period has expired. Someone might find this of use, just "paying it forward" Great thread!
