Welp. I did a web chat with a Microsoft Support agent and he got my license activated in about 20 minutes. I can't quite make out how he did it though. This man remoted into my computer and was working so fast he was doing like 5 different things at once. From what I could make out he restarted...

Where do you find their support number? I’m in Australia so do they have support numbers for different regions?

Yesterday I made some upgrades to my rig including changing the motherboard, CPU, RAM, cooler and PSU (I figured only the first two are important). When I got on today I noticed the Activate Windows watermark and when checking my activation settings I get the error: Windows reported that the...
