    I was connected to the internet all the time while installing, using a wired connection.
    In another attempt I did fill in the "3V66T" product key during install. But that had not changed anything in the end.

    I just made a new attempt and clean-installed my version again. And... permanently activated again!! I remember the install differed just a tiny bit from how it went yesterday: by the end of the installation you are asked to create a *User*. Now I filled in my MSA instantly, instead of creating it just after the install (in order to receive insider-updates).
    The funny thing is now, that I'm activated while "Download Insider-versions" is switched off.
    Anyway, it's solved for now..

    The group responsible for design the new interface must be fired for sure.

    The poor contrast in almost every element, white everywhere, flat lines, icons draw by a 6 year old.

    They should take a look at gnome/kde/matte for some ideas.

    In terms of usability, i think the new UI is a big step backwards compared to windows 7, even Windows XP can give you a better experience.

    I don't have any difficult to use it, I'm complaining because I see a lot of people that will have a hard time getting use to it.

    I know a lot of people that refuse to migrate from office 2007/2010 to office 2013 because of it's UI.

    These new windows apps should be considered a toy, no matter how powerful is your computer it took 1 - 2 seconds to open, unacceptable.

    They did it wrong with windows 8, and seems that they learn nothing with their mistakes.

    Is it that hard to consolidate control panel with settings windows?

    Everybody expect windows update icon be in control panel, like it was since Windows XP, instead it is in the new settings windows.

    Why don't let the windows update icon in control panel be a shortcut to update and security settings, instead just remove the icon?

    Anyway, I'm just barking like a dog that nobody bother with.

    Absolutely, I agree that the UI used in W7 or WXP is much better, and pleasing to look at.

    And as you say, surely the Control Panel and Settings should be consolidated. W10 is just confusing in this regard. And the options are lacking compared with WXP and W7.

    Yeah, right take a look at interfaces that are complete cockups in terms easiness of usability.

    I agree with you there. I hate having no taskbar blur. In previous builds it used to have it

    What are you talking about? I have blur on my taskbar and the start-menu on both my systems running Windows 10 Pro 10240? One is from ESD's, the other from the OEM IMG. You just have to go within the settings and change the colours? Mine was defaulting to black, and there was no transperancy / blur when running solid black.

    Why most of the help in Settings bring us to site in Edge and not in Help window like in previous versions of Windows ?

    The game is app or files ? because when you run app the taskbar can peek.
    Run game in Tablet mode.
