Guest anonSR Posted September 18, 2018 Posted September 18, 2018 Dell Inspiron 14, 7000 series Windows 8 I recently reset my computer after it started acting up. I had to download a new version of Windows 8.1 from Microsoft to complete the reset, and it seemed to work fine, but the Windows activation key that was installed with my laptop won't work. It displays "That key can't be used to activate this edition of Windows. Please try a different key." Is this because the activation key is for Windows 8 and the version I now have is 8.1? If so, is there any way I can revert back or download a version of Windows 8, or to upgrade my product key somehow? Help is much appreciated! Continue reading... Quote
