Renewing windows embedded 8 developer license fails
by Guest JonnaS1- 0 replies
- 167 views
Last november I was able to renew developer licenses for our windows 8 embedded computers. However now that the license is expiring again soon, license renewal isn't working (tested with two different computers). Running Show-WindowsDeveloperLicenseRegistration produces error 80072EFE and can't proceed to submitting login information. I have made sure I run powershell as administrator and the internet connection is working. Our software is reaching its end of life 11/2021, so I need to be able to renew the licenses one more time (before 4th of November 2020). Should the renewal work (or is the license server not in use anymore) and is there anything I can do to get o…

by Guest BonaventureJideofor- 0 replies
- 150 views
I have a problem with my laptop. My internal hard drive seems to be separated from my laptop. I can access stored files in the internal hard drive but I can't store new files in the laptop unless I store directly in the internal hard drive. By this, if I save a document or set my desktop background with a picture. On restarting my laptop I won't find the saved document and the saved background would not remain; the background would return to default. What should I do to connect the internal memory to the laptop so that what is saved in the laptop is seen even after I restart my laptop? Please, I urgently need assistance. Thanks. Bona. Continu…

Hi folks, I have a 2014 Toshiba tablet (running Windows 8) that I do not have the login password for. After multiple failed login attempts, BitLocker has kicked in and I am now unable to access or reset the tablet (to factory state). I never remember setting BitLocker up and certainly have no record of the ID that is associated with this machine. How can I move forward with resetting this machine (there is nothing of consequence on this device, so I just want to reset it to factory state and start afresh)? Your advice would be appreciated...

Screen problems?
by Guest Abiigator- 0 replies
- 141 views
Hi! So, I have an old Asus Windows 8 computer from about 2013/14. I haven't used it much in the past couple years, but that is because of a couple tech issues that I have and don't know how to fix. My main tech issue is the fact that my screen randomly turns black at times. I don't know the correct way to explain it, but when the screen is at certain angles it will flicker completely black. Or, sometimes I will be typing too aggressively or moving it, and the screen will flicker black. When it does this the computer will still be on for a minute or so, and will stay that way until it allows me to press the power button again and adjust the screen to a compatible s…
