To me that sounds like the computer was bought off eBay. And that is probably how they activated Windows on the computer. More than likely after about 180 days there will be messages about activating Windows I'd bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 7, 2019 2 minutes ago, Hollingerw2019 said: Yeah. They cheated when installing Windows on that computer and it is not a valid license. Kmspico was used to activate the machine. If that is removed, the license will no longer be good after 180 days. That computer shipped with Windows 7. I would suggest backing up anything you need, installing and activating the version of Windows 7 that shipped with it then upgrade to Windows 10. It should activate then.
