I how downloaded my Windows 10 Professional x64 ISO using Microsoft's Media Creation Tool. I created my boot media on USB. Now that I am installing it, it is asking for a Product Key. The Windows 7 Pro OA product key that is listed under the battery of my Dell Latitude E5530 is not working.
- I can skip the initial failure and install Windows 10 on the drive
- Once the OS has loaded and walking through the inital setup screens, I am prompted again
- Finally get logged in (just using local accounts, and not a Live Account) I try to activate again.
The product key fails with error code 0x004f050. This is basically a "Key" not valid.
So what do we do with this scenario? Do I need a different key from Dell? Do I need special OEM media from Dell to recognize the BIOS?
Please help.
Thanks!
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
