Variety of issues

[Stevevh]

hi all,

thanks for taking some time to read this.

I'm having a lot of issues with my windows 10. A few days ago it crashed and i needed to do a recovery of it. So i did a clean install, but it aborted by itself half way the procedure. (tried it twice both times it stopped halfway the procedure)

Now a small overview of all issues i have now

• It says that it can't activate windows license(i have the license, a legit one, but it still says it's not correct)
• License troubleshooter can't connect with the internet, while all other apps can
• even though i'm logged in as the admin, there are several folders i can't do any changes in as i don't have the access or the rights to do so
• software protection services are stopped and i can't get them to start as also here my access is denied

So at this moment my windows isn't registered and i can't get it fixed and my windows doesn't work how it should be...

thanks for you help...

kind regards


Steve

So i did a clean install

What source did you use for the installation media to perform the "clean install"

Get the latest ISO by using the media creation tool from here
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

Save it to a folder (that you can find) on your computer
Double click it to mount it which should create a virtual drive in File Explorer.
Run setup.exe from there to perform an in-place upgrade repair or your existing installation

This is a relatively safe albeit time consuming task, but....
Should allow you to keep existing programs, drivers, etc., intact.

I would still make sure that all my critical data was backed up and I would create a disk image just in case something doesn't go as planned.
