Microsoft support was worse than useless.

Also, I reject the very idea that needing 'permission from Microsoft'
(which is what this amounts to) to use one's computer is acceptable in
the first place. Basically with Windows 10 your PC is a terminal on
Microsoft's network which they can do with as they please and decide
at any time to deactivate. I'm not willing to put up with that on my
own equipment.


I have test VMs that continue to run, even though
they are not activated. On this OS, it's a pretty low
bar. (Your access to the personalization panel is
turned off.)
