Hexalude Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Greetings, Whilst away on work in an area where I did not have access to internet or phone coverage, I had an issue with my laptop which forced me to have to reinstall windows. Given the duration I was away, windows activation became an issue and I was left with little option but to get a tech savy co-worker to "Activate" my windows for me without the need for phones/internet. it worked fine and life went on. I have returned from my travels but I notice the activation has stripped my windows of many of the personalization options among other things. I have my peoduct key, I have the internet. Is there anyway I can De-activate my install of windows and activate again properly to solve these issues. Obviously a clean install would fix the issue but I am hoping to avoid that course of action. Thanks Hexalude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeSoprano Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) Try the change product key option and enter your original product key, I know it works on windows 7 but as I don't use w8 I'm not sure. Being as it's w8 you will most likely have to reinstall. Edited October 11, 2014 by SpikeSoprano Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
