And do you know why the clean install worked the 2nd time with 10240? I learned that you have to do an UPGRADE first - Microsoft will assign new keys for your computer at that time. You can then use that key for future updates. However when I did a clean install I did NOT have to enter the keys. My desktop is now locked with those with those win 10 keys I like to do clean install to start a new version of windows. HS |
