Windows 8.1 key expiring soon

I bought a new Asus T200T laptop running windows 8.1 on 11 January 2015 but since last few days,my PC keep notifying me "Your Windows License will expire soon" and when I checked my pc settings,it shows that my license will expire on March 4,2015
Does this mean I will have to purchase a new copy of windows after that date or is it a pirated copy in
which case the OEM license would not work?
Thanks

Post your issue to the Windows 7 Genuine Issues forum. Here are the instructions on how to produce a diagnostic:

Diagnostic Report:
To properly analyze and solve problems with Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the diagnostic report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to desktop -http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
Once downloaded, run the tool.
Click on the Continue button, after a short time, the Continue button will change to a Copy button.
Click on the Copy button in the tool (ignore any error messages at this point), and then paste (using either r-click/Paste, or Ctrl+V ) into your post.

Most Activation and Validation issues look the same, on the surface, but can have many different causes and fixes. This is why we ask for a diagnostic report and this is also why we ask that you create your own thread for your issue (in other words,
don't post your issue in another person's thread).
It just becomes too complicated to try to troubleshoot multiple different issues in the same thread.

Windows 8.1 pre-installed , your windows license will expire soon?!?!

I just updated my Windows today when they prompted and asked me to update it and restart the laptop. After updating and restarting, the laptop suddenly notifies me that my windows license will expire soon and I will need to activate it in the pcsettings.
It then brings me to a page with two choices, activate windows online or enter new product key. I tried both options but the first one won't work and the second one requires a product key which I have no idea what it is. When I look at my system information, it says that my windows 8.1 is activated.
By the way, my windows 8 is pre-installed on the laptop. Please help, I am a complete newbie in the technology field!

Windows 7 ESC key stopped working

I've got a fully patched Windows 7 Professional Desktop computer that I've been using for over 2 years. Yesterday my ESC key stopped working, which I first noticed when using Outlook and tried to close an open email window. I checked the keyboard
by moving it to another Windows 7 computer - works great. I also noticed that other keyboard shortcuts that utilize the ESC key still work, like for example pressing Ctrl / ESC brings up the Start menu. The problem is limited to functions that
operate off the ESC only - like closing an open email in Outlook or closing an open photograph on Facebook.
I downloaded a keyboard testing app that shows the key not working. But when I install this program on another computer and move the suspect keyboard - the program shows that it does in fact work.
I suspect something is wrong at a registry level - some entry has hijacked the key mapping. I've spent several hours on Google looking at various suggestions - all to no avail. I've tried updating drivers as a last resort - no change. Remember,
the ESC does work when used in a sequence involving multiple buttons. Any suggestions?

I've encountered a similar situation regularly: my Esc key just quits working in mid session, and I always forget what the cause/fix is.
I have this same keyboard for over 8 years now, and it always works fine, so no, it's not a hardware issue - these issues typically never are. Rebooting the PC always solves the issue, but rebooting a dev workstation, with a gazillion apps open is a PITA.
Turns out in my case it's always Photoshop CS2 that 'kills' my Escape key; as soon as I close Photoshop, the Esc key functions normally again.
Another issue I get is the Ctrl/Shift/Alt keys sometimes quit working; again, a reboot always fixes the issue, but rebooting is always a last recourse. Usually I just mash the Caps Lock/Ctrl/Shift/Alt; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I need
to reboot...

Certificate for code signing expires soon

Hi
since several days I am getting a warning message from my OS X server telling me that the Certificate for code signing will expire soon

The following certificate is about to expire on your server,servername.xx:

Expiration Date: 15. Mai 2013 10:30:44 MESZ
I looked under Certificates in Server app but this certificate does not appear. It's visible only in Key Chain under System and I suppose it is one which was created automaticely when I set up the server running under Mountain Lion. How can I renew this certificate ? Thanks for help

HP DV6 Laptop - How do I find my Windows 7 Product Key

Model: DV6-1149WM
Product: LW264UAR#ABA
I purchased a new hard drive for my laptop. I want to install a clean version of Windows 7 on this hard drive. The Windows product key sticker is badly worn on the bottom of my laptop and I can only make out a little more than half the characters on it. Where can I find the Windows 7 product key? I tried to use an app to find it but it only finds a generic key since it was an OEM install. Can you please tell me how I can find my product key? I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 on my new hard drive so I don't want to install it from any kind of recovery disk. Thanks in advance for your help.

How to install Windows 8.1 with Windows 8 Product key?

I have purchased Upgrade pack from Windows 7 to Windows 8. I have also Updated the OS to windows 8.1 through Store. How to install Windows 8.1 with Windows 8 Product key?

The download link for the Windows 8.1 installer at the Upgrade with Product Key Only does not accept a Windows 8.0 product key. I ended up using the trick suggested by Andre Ziegler in this thread to obtain the 8.1 download independent of the Windows
Store, but I haven't yet checked if the 8.0 key works from 8.1 Setup.
I do IT for a living but I have plenty of family members that bring their notebook PCs to me and ask me to do the heavy lifting, and I'd rather not re-download the same 3.6 GB every single time someone tells me to fix their PC. I also want to be able to
re-install 8.1 from the source media in case of a catastrophic hard disk failure and I have to replace the disk.
As an aside, tools that retrieve product keys for installed products end up retrieving the 8.0 product key from an 8.1 install that was upgraded via the Store. It kind-of makes sense that an 8.0 key could work to install 8.1 because 8.1 is supposed
to be a free upgrade for licensed 8.0 users, but this doesn't seem to work until after 8.1 is successfully installed via some trickery and the user supplies the 8.0 key to activate it.

My itunes match subscription will be expiring soon. Will I lose all my music if I choose not to subscribe again?

Hi,
If all your music is in your itunes library on your computer, you will not lose that music.
If you do not have the music on your computer and stream the music you will lose all your music except for previous itunes purchases. Likewise you will no longer have access to match music.

Windows 7 Product key Not working, Cannot download iso

First sorry if this post to to simar to the other windows 7 product key one but the soultion dosnt work anymore.
My hdd in my y580 started to give me the tick of death so i brought a new ssd to replace it and backed up my files to my external. i was going to make a bootable copy of windows 7 on my usb so i could install it on the ssd and this is were i ran into issue.
All offical download links now lead to a dead page that redirects you to a new windows download form where you are required to put in your product key before you can download. i put in my product key from the sticker on the back but it just returns with this "http://prntscr.com/62eyxp"
So even if i am able to get a copy of windows 7 will my cdkey work at all? and how can i get a copy when it keep giving me the message.
Anyhelp would be welcome.

First I am not a Microsoft employee, but I am a Microsoft MVP. As such I have to stick with the position Microsoft takes on downloading ISO files. They have given some users a way to redownload the ISO file. The other ways that are posted on the web Microsoft says that the official resellers (Digital River) downloads are for those who purchase the Windows OS thru the reseller's website. Anyone else that wants to download from there is not authorized to have such a downloaded file. All other sources of those file (other than the Microsoft site or the resellers site) are not legitimate sources of the file and can be infected.
This leaves users who purchased a computer from an OEM with no viable download source. While my personal opinions may differ from the official Microsoft position, I cannot really express them. But you may want to check out the DMCA Title III. Of course this only matters if you are in the US. If you are not, I have no idea what laws would apply.
While the downloaded ISO will not work with the key that you have from an OEM, if it is a real ISO from Microsoft and has not been altered in anyway and is a complete download, you can use it for repairs. Which is what almost everyone I deal with needs it for, repairs not reinstall. To be honest I hate telling someone to wipe their harddrive and reinstall windows.
I do believe that ALL OEM's are now charging for a copy of the factory image that is originally on the harddrive. But they cannot be used for repair in the manner that the Windows install disc can be.
What you do with all this information is entirely up to you. I hope it helps.

Upgrade path to 8.1 pro using windows 8 pro keys

Hi,
I have a windows 8 pro upgrade license which I bought when windows 8 was launched and have been unable to use it on my existing computer. I would like to use this license on a new computer and want to know what is the correct version of Windows Complete
Install to buy.
One option for me is to buy Windows 7 Home complete install then upgrade to Windows 8 Pro and eventually to Windows 8.1 Pro through the windows store. This is too tedious instead can I buy Windows 8.1 Home and use the Windows 8 Pro keys to upgrade it
to Windows 8.1 Pro directly?
Please advise on the correct version of complete Windows to be bought so I can take advantage of my Windows 8 Pro license.
Best regards,
Jai

Hi Jai
I suggest you to follow upgrade path using your Window 8 pro upgrade license since you already bought it
And I suggest also check whether this PC ready to upgrade to Windows 8.1, you can check using upgrade assistance to check if there is compatibility SW or device before you upgrade
There is 2 method for upgrade to Windows 8.1
1. buy upgrade key
2. buy DVD
Regarding upgrade key or buy the DVD, I suggest contact retailer or Microsoft sales
