    True it could just exist for legacy purposes. However I am very confident on this. Also I am not making any assumptions with the information I have on the Windows Licensing. The windows licensing system is fairly big however there are a number of files which are integral in terms of existing. If they don't exist then the entire Windows activation system will not work. I am confident enough that if we do this:

    Then that will put the matter to rest. I'll be very straight forward. I really do know enough about the activation to draw the conclusions. We have enough prior information to nail the Windows 10 licensing. I could track the information flow from the point you put a license key in if I wanted to.

    Go prove something, mang. You're great at coming up with hypothesis, but not so great at actually proving them.

    Will PM you. It is very much possible to track the information flow. The point of this is to show the amount of info available. With a good amount of the certainty I can say that the windows licensing has not changed much at all since Windows 7. Same boring system.

    Hash and size matches mine. The "Play Windows Startup sound" was unchecked in Control Panel\Sound so I checked it on and rebooted. I didn't hear anything on startup and login. I also noticed I couldn't select a sound file below the check box I enabled, meaning the area was grayed out.

    edit: the grayed out area which I thought was a bug is not, it becomes active when I select items in the scroll window, d'oh.

    edit2: the same wav file is also present in Windows 7 lol, wut? Same name, same hash and same location.

    edit3: google says the window 7 startup sound is actually in the imageres.dll file in c:\windows\system32 and this file also exists for windows 10.
