You became frustrated and tried to install Windows 10 using the download tool, but it reported your license wasn’t activated. You checked the Store and saw no proof of ownership. Consider reinstalling Windows 8 to complete the upgrade, or confirm your license status before proceeding.
You made a mistake, buddy. Set up Windows 8, then wait for the slow updates, and once they’re done, it’s all set.
By the way, I believe my W8 key isn't real. I got it from eBay for $30, so... Could I run into problems with the W10?
It seems you're experiencing problems with your copy of Windows. You mentioned upgrading successfully once before, so the issue might be related to the version you're using. You could still obtain a more affordable Windows 8 version and upgrade from there, which would likely be less expensive than purchasing Windows 10.
