    You can't skip the product key entering?! Sounds weird.

    Can you please post a screenshot of upgrade wizard?

    Funny, now sfc scannow is working. Dont know if it was that I needed to restart a few times for the hell of it or a defrag or a cleanup or what but it is scannng and running better. Will keep an eye out on it and if i notice anything else Will come back

    EDIT: sfc stuck at 33% now, acting like it was not to long ago when it would go only as far at 2%, even in safe mode

    After clean installing Windows 10 I noticed system restore for c: was off. Not that I'm complaining (it's one of the first things i turn off) but I found it odd that a feature meant to recover from bad states comes as off by default.

    Usually after clean installs of previous windows, system restore would default on and had never seen it any different.

    I think it does but it doesn't lock you out, it just tells you you need to activate it again.

    Probably driver issues, there are still plenty of them. I have that on my lenovo laptop.

    Be sure to check minimum system requirements, as I'm seeing you've XP.

    Anybody else having issues either in vmware or hyper-v with the workstation interfaces stopping and either having to reboot or going into the service and restarting it manually? I have had it with both over the last couple of days.

    When you say interface, you mean network interface right? I did not experience that but while running the latest vmware 11.1.2, the UI stopped responding while running 2 virtual machines. It happened only once though; never happened on windows 8.1.

    edit: by ui i mean the vmware gui hanged and never recovered, just killed and rebooted just to be safe.

    Actually I mean the workstation itself in the case of vmware and the manager for hyper-v. When it stops you can't start any of your guests, you get an error. It appears this has been an issue in past years with both but I have never seen it before the last couple of days. In both cases the service is set to auto but it just stops after awhile for no apparent reason not while guests are running but if it is just sitting there idle. The other possibility may be it goes off during sleep, I will try to verify that tonight.

    @montythebrave The key end by 3V66T is called generic key. A generic key is only determinate what you Windows edition install (Home or Pro), is not for activate Windows. For activate you Windows 10 use you personnal product key on (COA).
