I was able to upgrade to Pro and it is all linked now. Thanks

On the HP laptop, I don't remember but I believe Pro. My old computer it was Pro

It was originally from a HP laptop but when I built my old computer 7 years ago I was able to get Microsoft to give me an actual new product key

I have a digital license. It isn't allowing me to sign in to Microsoft to link the account. I go into settings>activision, it says windows is not active. I do the troubleshooter and click I changed hardware on this device recently. I get "We can’t find any devices linked to your Microsoft...

I had Windows 10 Pro on my old computer with a digital license. I didn't realize I had Pro and selected Home when I just did a fresh install on a new computer. I tried to activate my digital license but it obviously won't let me since I'm using the wrong version. Is there an easy way to...

Thanks I ordered the 1TB 980 Pro for OS and programs. I'll format the 500GB 850 Evo and use that for games

Any downside to having everything on that compared to OS/programs on one 850 and games on another 850? Is one set up better than the other or personal preference?

MSI B550-A Pro with 5600X

I appreciate the help I have two 250GB and one 500GB Samsung 850 Evo SSDs. Was going to use the 250GB for OS and programs then 500GB for games. However, looking at Samsung 980 Pro M.2 SSD, I can get 1TB for $60. Would it be worth just going that route and putting everything on the 980 Pro...

So if I install the programs to the C: drive, won't a new Windows install reformat the entire drive and erase it all anyway, so I'd have to start from scratch anyway?

Thank you for this I was downloading the install files, installing the programs and installing the games all on a separate SSD from my OS. So I should be installing the programs to the OS SSD but games to another? Sounds like I really need to start from scratch, which I would assume is fine.

I'm starting to piece together a new desktop. My current one has Windows 10 on one SSD. I have another SSD for all programs. I also have an older HDD for files, pictures, documents, etc. Windows is a digital license linked to my Microsoft account. To install Windows on my new PC, I would...

I'm not really sure why that folder was created there. Maybe I told Windows to install those two apps on the HDD instead of the Windows SSD. If I delete those two apps (which I did), wouldn't it not matter if WindowsApp folder was in the new non-Windows SSD?

When I built my PC I installed a SSD just for Windows 10 and a HDD for everything else. I just bought a new SSD to replace the HDD. My plan was to copy everything in the HDD to SSD then change the letter of the SSD to the HDD so all programs will work correctly. The HDD is the D drive and the...

I reinstalled realtek drivers and opened up the realtek manager. It kept detecting something being plugged and unplugged from the front jacks. My guess is it is getting a false reading which cuts out the jacks in the back. If I disable front jack detection, will that disable those jacks? Or...
