Can't install Windows 10 ?

[Buckzz]

Hi I am trying upgrade to Windows 10 from my Windows 7 Ultimate. I downloaded and tried to install Windows 10 and it failed I got the error message 8007002c-4000d and when I tried to install it again Windows is saying - Windows isn't activated on this pc. use a product key to activate it before upgrading to windows 10. I don't know what my product key is but it shouldn't ask me what it is nobody I know has had any problems like this. Can anyone help me ? Thanks.

Uninstall whatever antivirus program you've installed. Then try again. Or get the ISO and either burn it, or use rufus, then boot a flash drive

You can't install it on its own, you have to Upgrade from your existing Win 7 or 8.1 OS.

You're running the setup.exe from within your current running Windows 7?

Then you have to verify the activation status of your Win 7. It won't upgrade an unactivated OS.

Go to the store and see if it activates. You cant use the Win7 key it should have activated if you skipped it when it asked
