Download Windows 10 Pro 32 Bit Pre Activated

Isay it appears as if sound activated recording is turned on because when I put it in record mode the waveform window is paused and no recording is occurring. If sound activated recording was turned off I would expect that the waveform display should be displaying a flatline and scrolling to the right recording silence. As soon as I start the streaming station Audacity starts displaying the waveform and scrolling occurs.

I just tried upgrading to the latest 2.2 version to see if there was a bug fixed but the same behavior occurs in the new version. The described behavior has been occurring for 6 months and the system has been hard booted several times. Thanks for your troubleshooting ideas!

Are you testing this in the Designer? Doing this can leave windows open instead of closing them and confuse the situation. You are better to create 2 windows with buttons to swap from one to the other and test them in a client, looking at the console in the diagnostics window (open this with Help / Diagnostics or Ctrl+Shift-F7).

I put print statements in all the internalFrame and visionWindow events. When I first opened the window the following events fired:visionWindowOpenedinternalFrameOpenedinternalFrameActivatedWhen I closed the window these events fired:internalFrameDeactivatedinternalFrameClosingvisionWindowClosedinternalFrameClosedWhen I opened the window a second time these events fired:visionWindowOpenedinternalFrameActivatedWhen I closed the window a second time these events fired:internalFrameDeactivatedinternalFrameClosingvisionWindowClosedinternalFrameClosedThe only difference is that internalFrameOpened only fires the first time, maybe because the window is being cached.

I recently got windows 11 on my laptop, and a popup message keeps showing and telling me to activate my windows, but in settings, it says that my windows is already activated. It really makes me nervous because I don't know what to do

Should eBay merchants be required to state whether or not the copies of Windows 10 they have installed (or have been installed by their refurbisher) have been activated? I recently bought a laptop refurbished by HP. It came with Windows 10 installed. I thought whoopie, I've saved some money there! Upon arrival I discovered the catch: Windows 10 was installed, but it was not activated. Is this deceptive advertising, or just a case of "buyer beware?"

My seller responded. The seller's advice was to contact HP, where my laptop was refurbished. That sounds like a worthwhile effort, however the advice was too late for me. I had already paid the $120 to Microsoft for activation.

The solution is to shop for Windows 10 units, comparing prices on machines running activated copies of the operating system. Ask the seller if Windows 10 is activated if they don't say anything other than 10 is installed.

If you inadvertantly purchase a unit that does not have Windows 10 activated, you can use it as it is until Microsoft says otherwise. At the moment, Microsoft doesn't know what it wants to do about this. Their OS is great, but is definitely not the only fish in the sea, as they say. Microsoft's competition has become quite robust as smart phone use has increased. Microsoft will activate your copy of Windows 10 and support all features for $120 + tax. However, before you spend additional money, read through the good advice in the responses above. Check with your seller/refurbisher first. That might save you some cash.

Actually, I don't believe I would call it deceptive. If the machine has arrived with the operating system installed it is exactly as described. Unless I'm mistaken, any time you buy a new or refurbished machine you have to run setup and register the first time you use it.

Selling merchandise with undisclosed costs is unethical. As of this writing, Windows 10 activation was a $120 cost not disclosed to this buyer in the eBay ad. You say this is OK?! Maybe it is the general, accepted practice of eBay computer sellers to minimize the apparent cost to the customer in this way, but I don't think such deliberate minimizing of total expense makes happy customers. In any case, it inclines this one to leave one of his rare less than 5-star ratings. Perhaps you think it unfair that customers know the total price of items before purchase?

Not having seen the listing it is somewhat difficult to understand to what you are referring. Normally, when I purchase a new computer the operating system is installed and the machine is functional, although I usually must run setup and install any updates to it. Of course, the cost of the operating system is included in the price of the new machine. But as I mentioned, not having seen the listing I'm not sure if that is the case with a refurbished machine or not.

I'm afraid I'm confused regarding what it is that you mean by "activation" and "installed." A computer needs to have an operating system to function. Admittedly, I'm not very familiar with Windows 10, but I can't really see how it was installed without being activated at the time of installation.

Make sure you have the machine successfully connected to the Internet. And if it has been or now is successfully connected to the Internet, go to the Start menu and under Settings go to "Update & Security" and then "Activation" and invoke the "Troubleshooter" link. ( -us/help/20527/windows-10-activation-troubleshooter)

The troubleshooter might just end up concluding "you don't have a valid activation key for this device" and still leaves you non-activated. But its also possible the seller does actually have a valid Windows 10 license for this machine, and the machine is just having trouble reaching the Microsoft activation servers to verify that fact.

(Note its also possible that after installing and activating the Windows 10 installation, the seller then changed or swapped some significant piece of hardware, not realizing the ramifications this would create for the Windows 10 activation by doing it "after the fact.")

If you're unable to resolve successful activation, and contacting the seller to have them provide any information they can help with on whether the Windows 10 was supposed to be activated and/or how to do it, then your next best bet will be to install whatever version of Windows was originally on the machine. i.e. What Microsoft Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is affixed to the machine, if any.

Because if you can install /that/ version of Windows and get it activated, you can still upgrade to Windows 10 for free from Microsoft. (Google the Microsoft assistive technologies upgrade.) If that sounds like too much hassle, which it legitimately can, then buying just the Windows 10 activation key to that you can activate your existing install is the remaining way to go.

The last time I purchased a laptop was in the era of Windows 7. It came with an activated copy of windows. That old unit upgraded to Windows 10 seamlessly. Whereas Windows 7 & earlier versions would not work without Microsoft activation (usually with a code), Windows 10 is not so fussy. Now units can be sold with Windows 10 installed, but not activated.

Today buyers must distinguish between ads touting Windows installed and those saying Windows has been installed and activated. Activation adds $120 + tax to the cost of any computer sold, so the price difference is substantial. Honest advertisers will explain this in their ads. If you buy a unit without activation, Microsoft will send you unsettling messages indicating that you are using an unauthorized version of the operating system until you finally cave, spend that money and activate it.

My seller has yet to respond to my inquiry asking them what to do, now 2 business days old. They are a high volume seller of factory refurbished Windows 10 units and should know better. I've paid Microsoft and activated my copy. If I don't hear something soon, their rating will suffer.

In my view, this situation is not entirely the responsibility of the seller or the refurbisher. Microsoft seems to be in the midst of an internal debate about whether to charge anything at all for its operating system. So this is probably a temporary circumstance--of which some sellers are taking advantage.

Thanks for your responses! Windows 10 is weird in that it will run without activation as of this writing. Previous editions of Windows would not. However, if you are running a non-activated copy, Microsoft sends you subtle reminders that your copy is unauthorized. Certain features are available only on activated copies, and until your copy is activated, you are made to feel that you are pirating services.

Interesting! I bought one laptop as a gift for my son that came with Windows 10. I had all kinds of issues with the drivers included with it and had to have tech support download the drivers directly from their respective sources. Frankly, my son didn't care for Windows 10 and now does almost all of his stuff on his iPhone.
