I'll ask this again, as it may have been missed Any ideas as to why I cant optimize my RAID drives, and also why they are detected as SSD drives?? Never had this problem in 8.11? Latest RST drivers are installed. Says 'optimization not available', and button is greyed out?
C:\WINDOWS\system32>cscript "%windir%\system32\slmgr.vbs" \dlv Invalid combination of command parameters. It's an elevated Admin screen but can't get it to work...wtf !!
Doh !!! My initial question was my KMS server isn't refreshing the 180 day time limit. Is this because KMS isn't active yet for the 29th of July Officil Win 10 release? Software licensing service version: 10.0.10240.16384 Name: Windows(R), Professional edition Description: Windows(R) Operating System, VOLUME_KMSCLIENT channel Product Key Channel: Volume:GVLK Installation ID: Partial Product Key: T83GX License Status: Licensed Volume activation expiration: 246361 minute(s) (172 day(s)) Remaining Windows rearm count: 1001 Remaining SKU rearm count: 1001 Trusted time: 28/07/2015 6:26:18 PM Configured Activation Type: KMS Most recent activation information: KMS host caching is disabled
For me it's resetting, i have 180 days left.. (installed 3 days ago) Check if Windows Defender is not blocking it.
Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm currently running Windows 7 Home Premium, OEM activated. However, I do not want Win10 Home, I want Win10 Pro. Therefore, I must do the upgrade from a 7 (or 8) Pro installation of windows. My question is as follows: does MS register my machine (and whether its home/pro) before it downloads the ESD, or only once I initialize the update? My main question is: if I would want to swap my HDD and put in one that will have 7 Pro activated, will I be able to get the 10 pro upgrade, or will MS already have registered my machine as a home activation? Summary: Prior to initializing the upgrade, does windows already register hardware info, or does that only happen once upgrade starts. The effectual difference I am asking is - if while i'm sleeping my current windows 7 home downloads the 10 upgrade, am i locked into 10 home, or can i install a new hdd with 7 (or 8.1) pro and re-download the upgrade (thereby receiving win10 pro).
upgrade install pro over your windows 7 home, for the license key just use windows loader by daz to put in the certificate and key. It's been a while since i've done that, i think you need to use an upgrade key to do the upgrade, then once done change the key to the slic associated key. otherwise, just wipe the machine and install 7 pro and use daz loader to put in the cert and key. then you have a genuine win7 pro, when after that upgrade to windows 10 pro the great thing about windows 7 licensing was the slic in the bios is the same for every version of windows so its simple to activate pro on a home computer.
thanks for the quick reply i know that i will need to upgrade to pro in order to get win 10 pro i just dont want to mess around with my current setup, and i dont have a 2nd hdd handy at the moment (it is the middle of the night here) so im asking at what point does MS decide/define whether i'll be getting a win 10 home key or win 10 pro key; after i do the upgrade, or immediately upon downloading the esd
alrighty im thinking of shutting my internet connection off on this pc until this gets sorted out. i dont want to be stuck with a 10 home key...
you won't be, if you then wiped the machine and installed 7 pro, then upgraded you'd have a pro license, i've tested this already, the keys are standard keys, everyone gets the same key.
Oh. So that does answer my question. You are therefore telling me that if my PC downloads the Windows 10 upgrade while i'm running Win7Home, yet I do not install Win10, and then swap in new hdd with win 7 pro, i will be given a win 10 pro upgrade?
