    In W8 you could click next to Windows is activated and it would show you for how long, where do you find that in 8.1?

    Can't understand anything of this. o_O Does it only works if you got a WMC key after? I keep getting that '' grace time expired ''. I don't even have a WMC key. Got one last year, never used it, I think it got blocked.. :(
