I need to reactivate my Windows 10 installation license. I had ongoing issues with the motherboard, and have a new one installed. the last step now is to Activate Windows. Here is the core of the problem.
Not an easy step with Dell systems it seems. I have contacted Microsoft and they have told me that I need Dell Support to increase my activation count. Due to the SSD that was faulty right from the start, and which I have had to replace together with the motherboard while still under warranty, these interventions have caused the Activation Count to be now depleted. I did not know this will be an issue because I was unaware that it is Dell's setup and it is not everyday you upgrade OS and motherboards, so time has passed and the warranty and support is out.So, I am unable to actually change any of my Win10 settings, because the Activation will not proceed until a kind soul from Dell helps me.
I have tried to call in but I cannot stay on hold during the business hours.
I would really appreciate some help with this issue.
