Hi guys,
So here's the issue. I have a legit copy of windows 8 (standard) and it was working fine. I have had this computer for about a year now and its been awesome! Until... until i got greedy and tried to upgrade WIndows 8 to Windows 8 Pro using a false Product key -.-!
Yes I know it was a bad choice but right now I am REALY wanting to get this fixed basically I have 2 watermarks on my screen! its bugging me like crazy telling me to activate windows! So I spoke with Mircosoft and they told me that the only way to fix this is to buy their WIndows 8 Pro product key and I realy don't have the money. He did also mention that this could be fixed if I reinstalled windows 8.
Now this is the part that really worries me. I have had this computer for quite some time now and I deffinitly do not want to have any files removed, corrupted or whatever! Is there a way to reinstall my standard legit copy of windows 8 on my computer without deleting or effecting any of my files, drivers, software, settings, everything. Basically just refresh windows without touching a single file or setting.
Kindest Regards,
